Answer:

Realpolitik ("politics of reality" in German) is politics or diplomacy based on practical interests and concrete actions, without attending to theory or philosophy as elements "policy makers".

Realpolitik advocates advancing the interests of a country according to the current circumstances of its environment, instead of following philosophical, theoretical or moral principles. In this regard, he shares his philosophical approach with philosophical realism and pragmatism.
