Evgeniy Primakov

Evgeny Primakov is a well-known Russian statesman and political figure, an orientalist, an economist who has made a disproportionate contribution to the economic, political and scientific industries of the Russian Federation. From 1991 to 1996, he headed the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, from 1996 to 1998 he served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, in 1998-99 he was the Chairman of the Russian Government. Over the next ten years, from 2001 to 2011, he was President of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Primakov Yevgeny Maksimovich was born on October 29, 1929 in Kiev, but three months after birth, together with his mother Anna Yakovlevna Kirshenblat, he became a "victim" of Stalinist repressions, in connection with which they had to leave their hometown and move to Tbilisi to stay with their relatives.

Young Eugene never saw his father and knew nothing about him; he was brought up by a single mother who lived only for her son. It is known that the mother of the future Prime Minister of the Russian Federation was a professional obstetrician-gynecologist and devoted her entire life to this profession.

Primakov's childhood passed in a 14-meter communal apartment without basic amenities, but the boy was always well-fed and dressed, despite the difficult wartime - his mother worked two jobs to provide her son with everything he needed.

Due to the full employment of his mother, young Zhenya was left to himself, walking on the street with the guys all day, but this did not prevent him in the future from reaching colossal heights in the political sky of modern Russia and becoming a worthy citizen of his country.

After graduating from the 7th grade of secondary school, the future head of the Russian Foreign Ministry decided to enter the naval preparatory school in Baku, but after two courses of study he was expelled from the ranks of cadets for health reasons - then Primakov was diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis. In this regard, the guy had to return to his school desk to get a complete secondary education.

Thanks to the tireless efforts and care of his mother, Eugene managed to overcome a terrible illness. In 1948, the young man successfully graduated from male school No. 14 in Tbilisi. In view of the fact that he was a good and diligent student at school, he was able to enter the prestigious Moscow Institute of Oriental Studies “without cronyism”.

After graduation, Yevgeny Primakov continued his studies and in 1956 graduated from the Faculty of Economics, postgraduate study at Moscow State University. In 1959 he defended his Ph.D. thesis and became a candidate of economic sciences.

Yevgeny Primakov's career began in the Arabic edition of the Main Directorate of Radio Broadcasting to foreign countries, in which he rose from an ordinary correspondent to editor-in-chief. The future prime minister of the Russian Federation worked in journalism until 1970, after which Primakov's biography changed its direction towards science.

Then Evgeny Maksimovich took the post of Deputy Director of the Institute of World Economy and International Relations, and 7 years later he headed the Institute of Oriental Studies, while being a professor at the Diplomatic Academy and academician-secretary of the Department of Economics and the Department of World Economy and International Relations.

In 1989, the first political star appeared on the horizon of Primakov's career, and he rapidly entered global world politics. At the beginning, he was elected a member of the Politburo of the CPSU Central Committee, and literally a year later he became a member of the Presidential Council, where, with his participation, many serious issues related to the development of dangerous events, situations and conflicts were resolved.

After the coup in 1991, Yevgeny Primakov became chairman of the Foreign Intelligence Council, first of the USSR and then of Russia, while he served as the first deputy chairman of the USSR KGB. In 1996, Yevgeny Maksimovich was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, which brought him tremendous success in the political arena.

Then he managed to conduct successful negotiations with the countries of the Middle East and received many incoherent loans in the amount of $ 3 billion, which at that time were very necessary for the country.

In 1996, Primakov became Prime Minister of the Russian Federation under the then current President Boris Yeltsin. In this position, Yevgeny Maksimovich also clearly showed his professionalism, since he had a lot of receptions, meetings and negotiations with high-ranking representatives of European countries, which he had to conduct on his own due to Yeltsin's illness.

In 2001, at an extraordinary congress of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Primakov was elected its president. Until 2011, Primakov remained the unchanged head of the RF CCI. In this field, Evgeny Maksimovich focused all his vast experience and scientific potential.

Thanks to his colossal achievements, he was considered the world authority of a statesman and public figure, contributing to the implementation of major programs of federal significance.

In 2008, the ex-Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation became a member of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences and became an honorary member of the Russian Academy of Education. Evgeny Maksimovich is one of the leading Russian orientalists, the largest scientist in the field of international relations, foreign policy and the economy of Russia.

Yevgeny Primakov's personal life, like his career, has sharp turns and unpleasant events. He was married twice, has a daughter, two granddaughters and a grandson. His first wife was Laura Kharadze, the adopted daughter of an NKVD general. Yevgeny Maksimovich married her in 1951 while still a graduate student. The famous politician lived 36 happy years with his first wife, but in 1987 Primakov became a widower.

From his first marriage, Evgeny Maksimovich had a son, Alexander, who suddenly died at a young age from a heart attack, and a daughter, Nana. Primakov's son was left with his only grandson, Yevgeny, who works under the pseudonym Sandro (in honor of his father) as a correspondent for Channel One, and his daughter gave politics to two charming granddaughters.

7 years after the death of his first wife, the politician's heart opened up again towards love, and he married his doctor Irina Borisovna a second time, with whom he walked hand in hand along a difficult career path until the end of his days.

In addition to politics and science, Primakov showed himself brightly in literature. He is the author of numerous articles and books on political and economic topics. In addition, Evgeny Maksimovich was fond of poetry and wrote poetry himself.

On June 26, 2015, a prominent politician Yevgeny Primakov passed away at the age of 85. According to media reports, the ex-Russian Foreign Minister died of cancer. The entire Russian elite mourns for the largest political figure who has devoted his entire life to the development of society and the economy of the Russian Federation.

According to friends and associates of the former Prime Minister of Russia, with the death of Primakov, "the era of conscience, honesty and statehood in the new Russia has died." Russian President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev personally expressed condolences to the relatives of the deceased politician who created the history of the Russian Federation.
