Russia: Sergei Sazonov (1860-1927), Russian Foreign Minister 1910-1916, c. 1910-1914

Sergei Dmitrievich Sazonov GCB (10 August 1860, Ryazan Governorate – 25 December 1927) was a Russian statesman who served as Foreign Minister from November 1910 to July 1916. The degree of Sazonov's involvement in the events leading up to the outbreak of World War I is a matter of keen debate, with some historians putting the blame for an early and provocative mobilization squarely on Sazonov's shoulders, and others maintaining that his chief preoccupation was to reduce the temperature of international relations, especially in the Balkans.
