📅 #OTD in 1798, Alexander #Gorchakov was born - a great diplomat, legendary Foreign Minister & statesman of the 19th century.

🔹 Having headed the Foreign Ministry in 1856, he set a goal to rewrite the results of the Crimean war. He wanted to reestablish control over the Black Sea and Bessarabia “without spending money and without shedding a drop of Russian blood.”

🔹 Using his diplomatic skills, Gorchakov managed to prevent Austria from entering the Franco-Prussian war, which brought a complete victory to Prussia. Having won the support of this new empire, Russia announced that it would no longer fulfil the obligations of the Paris Congress and not a single European power dared contradict this.

💬 “Russia is not angry, it is focusing.” This famous phrase is attributed to Gorchakov. He created favourable conditions for the reforms that allowed Russia to make an economic leap in the last third of the 19th century.

✍️ Russian FM Sergey Lavrov’s article «Staged incidents as the Western approach to doing politics», published in Izvestia newspaper

Read in full

🔹 All the good relations talk, the West’s proclaimed readiness to take into account the rights and interests of Russians who ended up in independent Ukraine or other post-Soviet countries after the collapse of the USSR turned out to be mere pretence.

🔹 Ukraine, Moldova and other countries being courted by the EU today are destined to be extras in the games of the West.

🔹 The collective West should come back to Earth from the world of illusions. The staged incidents, no matter how long they go on, will not work. It is time for fair play based on the international law rather than cheating.

🔹 The sooner everyone realises that there are no alternatives to objective historical processes where a multipolar world is formed based on respect for the principle of sovereign equality of states, fundamental for the UN Charter and the entire world order, the better.
