🌐 Yevgeny Primakov, a prominent Soviet and Russian statesman, Foreign Minister of Russia in 1996-1998, was born #OTD in 1929.
Primakov’s arrival at Smolenskaya Square became a turning point in the foreign policy of our state, the start of the restoration of Russia’s positions on the international arena.
He foresaw the appearance of new centres of economic growth and political influence in the world and, in this sense, predicted the realities of multipolarity. He established the Russia-India-China format, which became the prototype of BRICS, the true embodiment of multipolar diplomacy.
❗️ On March 24, 1999, during his flight to the United States, Yevgeny Primakov found out that NATO countries launched air strikes on Yugoslavia. He immediately turned his plane around and returned to Moscow. That legendary U-turn over the Atlantic became a symbol of revision of relations with the West towards pragmatism and realism, and Russia’s transition to a multi-vector foreign policy.
