The mystery of the origin of Sergei Lavrov
It is impossible to find information about Sergei Viktorovich's childhood in any sources of information. It is known only that the future foreign minister was born on March 21, 1950 in the capital of Georgia - Tbilisi, in his father's homeland, but Sergey Lavrov grew up in Moscow. Lavrov's father is a Tbilisi Armenian Kalantaryan, having matured, Sergei took, more sonorous for Russia, his mother's maiden name. Sergey's mom - Kaleria Borisovna- Honored Worker of the USSR at the Ministry of Foreign Trade. According to some sources, it is known that Sergei Lavrov is an Armenian, but this information is refuted on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Sergei Lavrov himself told about his childhood, remembering that he was raised "And carrot and stick", but no one ever beat him, everything was explained by words and deeds. As the mother is an employee of Vneshtorg, the parents devoted themselves all to this business, enticing their son. Their entourage consisted of government officials, politicians who loved their job and related to the world of politics. It is likely that these facts greatly influenced the life of Sergei Lavrov, so he chose his future profession without losing it.

Sergey Lavrov changed two schools during his childhood, at first he studied in the city of Noginsk, at school №2 named after V. Korolenko, but later, at his request, he was transferred to a specialized Moscow school №607 with in-depth study of English language, apparently already then, in small steps he was walking towards his future profession. Despite the fact that the school was more with a philological bias, Sergei Lavrov loved physics most of all and took part in various Olympiads. As a result, he graduated from high school with a silver medal. Then there was a choice between two universities MEPhI and MGIMO, but since in the second exams began earlier, after listening to his parents, Sergei entered there.
This determined young man became a student MGIMO oriental faculty. But in some sources it is known that it was not his desire, but his parents, but still Sergei Lavrov graduated from the university and became a wonderful politician. In his student days, Sergei Lavrov was always the soul of the company, a romantic, he loved to play the guitar and write songs.

Sergey Viktorovich was very purposeful and from an early age earned money himself, working in construction teams in Tuva, Yakutia, Khakassia. After graduating from the university, the student successfully mastered three languages: French, Sinhalese and English. After receiving his diploma in 1972, he entered the service of the USSR Embassy in Sri Lanka.

Overseas, for the benefit of his native country, Sergei Viktorovich worked for about 10 years. But in 1988 he returned to his native capital and began to reach the height of the diplomatic public service.
Sergey Lavrov speaks several languages
Since 1988 Sergei Lavrov put even more effort into his work and began to occupy the best positions at that time in politics. First, he took the post of deputy head in the department of international economic relations of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, then he became director of the Department of International Organizations and Global Problems of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, realizing that this was not the limit of his capabilities, in a very short period he became Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.

Boris Yeltsin appointed Sergey Lavrov as the permanent representative of the Russian Federation to the UN, but this is not the limit, there was another appointment for Lavrov, to become the representative of the Russian Federation in the Security Council of the United Nations. Lavrov's considerable political biography brought him fame not only in his native country, but all over the world. The great success in the work of the UN Security Council Sergei Viktorovich mistletoe thanks to a large circle of acquaintances in America, which allowed him to study the many nuances of this profession and understand the main international problems. Despite this post, and great responsibilities, Sergei Lavrov had one more position, he was the deputy chairman of the Interdepartmental Commission, and was also co-coordinator of the peacekeeping activities of the Russian Federation.
Sergei Lavrov has long been Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN
In March 2004 Lavrov's dream came true, he was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, but he was appointed two more times, he did not give his place to anyone. They were reappointed for the first time in April 2008 with the appointment of the President of the Russian Federation, and the second time in 2012 after the election of President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. Sergei Lavrov holds his post farther than all his predecessors, except Andrey Gromyk, he worked for 28 years, but many say that Lavrov will also break the ego's record of arriving at the state. It should also be noted that Sergey Lavrov is one of the main members of the editorial board of various publications, he is the chairman of the board of trustees of MGIMO and many foundations that help residents of Russia. For example, the Russkiy Mir Foundation, Children of Russia, he not only worries about the future of the country, but also remembers and honors the past, therefore he became the trustee of the board of the program of the Andrew the First-Called Foundation “Restoration of the Monument to Russians in Gallipoli”.
Sergey Lavrov works on the plane
Everyone knows that Sergei Lavrov is a very scandalous politician; at many meetings, press conferences of the Foreign Ministry, he allowed himself a swear speech and not quite beautiful actions, as for a diplomat. For example, Lavrov made “unnecessary” words at a press conference with the Saudi Arabian Foreign Ministry. It seemed to him that he was talking to himself, but he swore into the microphone, which the journalists could not fail to notice and immediately let it on the Internet. The next day, the whole country knew about this case, someone condemned it, someone supported it in mockery, but still they decided that Sergei Lavrov made a mistake. After a while, everyone forgot about this curious incident.
Sergei Lavrov is a scandalous politician
A visit to Mongolia for work purposes would like to be better, because at a business meeting everyone was dressed in formal clothes, but Lavrov stood out and flew in in blue jeans, for which he remained convicted.
Another scandalous incident was not long in coming, it happened right during negotiations with David Miliband, The Russian Foreign Ministry swore obscenities on the phone, saying "You f *** ing who are you to teach me ?!" And this situation did not leave itself without the attention of Russians and residents of other countries. Despite the many curious and unpleasant incidents of Sergei Viktorovich, he remains an excellent government worker who does everything for the good of his country.
Sergey Lavrov often gives interviews and does not hide from journalists
Personal life of Sergei Lavrov
The personal life of the scandalous politician can only be envied. The family is calm, stable, successful and happy. While still a student, Sergei met his only one, with whom he never parted, and in the third year of university he officially entered into a marriage. His wife Maria Alexandrovna She was a student at the Pedagogical University and in the future dreamed of becoming a good teacher, but she also became a caring mother and a happy wife of the minister. The whole family life Maria Lavrova was next to her husband, accompanied him on all trips, supported him in all endeavors and had a good position, held the position of the head of the library of the UN mission.
Sergey Lavrov with his daughter
While in the United States of America, a daughter was born to the Lavrov family Catherine, who studied at an American school in Manhattan, and then her decision was to enter Columbia University. The girl roughly learned and recovered for an internship in London, where she found happiness, having found a loved one, Alexander Vinokurov, whose father is a pharmaceutical magnate.

Sergey Lavrov now
In March 2018, he won the presidential elections in the Russian Federation, where he won. But Sergei Lavrov retained his position and continues to work as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.
Sergey Lavrov has assistants who work on his accounts in social networks by uploading photos from press conferences and meetings. Unfortunately, the Minister has no personal photos, because for security reasons, he is prohibited from advertising the life of his family.
Sergey Lavrov and Vladimir Putin
In his spare time, Sergey Lavrov spends time with his family and keeps himself in shape thanks to rafting and playing football, and is an avid fan of the Spartak team. As in his student years, he remains the soul of the company, does not change playing the guitar with friends and family. It is known that the Russian Foreign Ministry is very fond of the Russian bath, Scotch whiskey and Italian cuisine.
Sergey Lavrov is an avid smoker of cigarettes and cigars, and, if possible, defends his rights to themselves high levels... Case with Kofi Annan Confirmation of this, he defended the opportunity to smoke at the UN headquarters, thereby winning the dispute with the Ghanaian diplomat and earning respect from the surrounding ministers.
A good feeling of pestilence among politicians is rare, but not in this case, Sergei Lavrov was invited to the famous TV show "Evening Urgant", many liked the show and Lavrov became a favorite among viewers.
Sergei Viktorovich Lavrov is a diplomat, statesman who serves for the benefit of the country. A man who has achieved himself by hard work and diligence. Despite various incidents, he always remains the pride of the country.
Foreign Minister Sergei Viktorovich Lavrov
In 1972 he graduated from the Moscow State Institute of International Relations of the USSR Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Recently, when discussing politics, a good friend of mine pounced on me like an angry panther, "What? You and Lavrov wrote down as non-Russians? He is Russian - his surname ends in" ov "!"
But the fact is that, starting from the moment the state called the Russian Federation appeared on December 25, 1991, and until now we have not had not a single Russian foreign minister.
The first Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation from 1990 to 1996 was Andrei Vladimirovich Kozyrev. There is no information about his parents in Wikipedia, but it is mentioned that since 2001 he has been one of the members of the Presidium of the Russian Jewish Congress. And on the website jewage.org, he is listed on the list of famous Jews.
Andrey Vladimirovich Kozyrev, First Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation (photo from here).
Let's not argue with Jewish sites and organizations. They probably know who is theirs and who is not.
Among ordinary citizens for some reason, the opinion is popular that if a Jew, then he must be smart. But here is what the website compromat.ru writes about Kozyrev
The would-be minister Andrei Kozyrev, who, during his lifetime, turned into a "walking anecdote" and amazed with his servility, amateurism and intellectual squalor, did not cope with this task. After five years of “dear Andrey ”’s activity in the Foreign Ministry’s field, they gradually ceased to take his master seriously and to show the due“ signs of attention ”at the international level. ()
The fate of Kozyrev after his resignation is quite typical for non-Russians. Having milked Mother Russia and earning themselves capital and a decent pension, they move abroad.
Currently lives with his family in Miami, USA, criticizes the political system in Russia and the activities of President Putin ()
On January 9, 1996, Kozyrev was replaced by Yevgeny Maksimovich Primakov, who served as Minister of Foreign Affairs until September 11, 1998.
Evgeny Maksimovich Primakov, the second Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation (photo from here).
“I grew up in Tbilisi, I really love this city, this country. It’s very hard for me that I cannot afford to get on a plane, fly there for a day and return. And, alas, I cannot while I’m a minister. When I leave this post, I will definitely make such sorties. " E. M. Primakov ()
Until now, there was no reliable information about the nationality of Primakov's mother. Various sources wrote that she lived in Tbilisi, where she worked as an obstetrician-gynecologist. Any reasonable person understands that a doctor in general, and even more so such a monetary profession as a gynecologist, is a place of increased concentration of Jews, but of course such an argument cannot be considered proof. However, literally a month ago, on January 25, 2016, Primakov's book "Meetings at Crossroads" went on sale.
“A romantic story is connected with my maternal grandmother - a Jewess. With a wayward character, against the will of my great-grandfather, the owner of the mill, she married a simple worker, besides Russian, hence the name of the Primakovs.” Primakov E.M., Meetings at Crossroads, ISBN: 978-5-227-05787-7 ()
So, the maternal grandmother is Jewish, which makes Primakov's mother a semi-Jewish (if, of course, Primakov is believed that the grandmother married a Russian).
Now to my father. Primakov writes that he had the surname Nemchenko and that "they parted ways with their mother." However, the website compromat.ru gives a different version.
Zhenya Primakov was brought to the city of Tbilisi in November 1929. That is, a few days after birth. Then Tbilisi was still called Tiflis.
What made the mother of the newborn - Anna Yakovlevna - hastily leave Kiev and move with the baby from Tiflis? Who was Zhenya's father and why was he not next to his son? Whose last name did the boy get - maternal or paternal?
Primakov's pedigree is a secret sealed with seven seals. From the published autobiography of Yevgeny Maksimovich, one can only learn that his father died when he was three months old, and that he was brought up by a single mother who worked as a doctor in a polyclinic at a spinning and knitwear combine.
...
The real father of Zhenya Primakov was not a man who died in 1929, but the literary critic Irakli Andronikov, who lived until the eighties. He did not recognize his son, but he did not abandon him to the mercy of fate, he helped Zhenya's mother settle in Tiflis, where immediately after moving from Kiev she was given two rooms in the former house of the tsarist general. The participation of Irakli Luarsabovich in the fate of his son did not end there. ()
The biography of the real (according to compromat.ru) dad, Irakli Luarsabovich Andronnikov, can be easily traced.
[Irakli Luarsabovich Andronikov] was born on September 28, 1908 in St. Petersburg, where at that time his father, the future successful capital lawyer Luarsab Nikolaevich Andronikashvili, who came from a famous noble family in Georgia, was studying at the university at the Faculty of Law. In 1917, by the Provisional Government, the father of the young Heraclius was even appointed secretary of the criminal department of the Senate. [...] Irakli Andronikov's mother, Ekaterina Yakovlevna Gurevich, came from a well-known Jewish family ()
That is, Primakov's father is half Jew, half Georgian. I would like to draw the reader's attention to how nerus likes to change their non-Russian surnames, adding the typical Russian ending "ov". But at the same time they often leave their national names. Andronikashvili was there, but he changed his surname to Andronikov and immediately became a Russian for the layman. But the Georgian name Irakli remained. And the name of the pope, Luarsaba, in the documents is already more difficult to change. This Georgian could officially become at least Ivan Petrov, but nevertheless Ivan Luarsabovich Petrov, which will prompt a person with a developed national flair "carefully, Luarsab's child cannot be Russian!"
In general, in the matter of determining nationality, the search and analysis of facts is sometimes not needed - it is enough just to look at the photographs of the subject. In the photo below we see a typically non-Russian family.
Non-Russians family. (left) Yevgeny Maksimovich Primakov with his wife Laura Vasilievna Kharadze and children. (right) E.M. Primakov with his son Sasha. (photo from here).
Judging by the photographs of young Evgeny Maksimovich, you begin to doubt that there was at least one Russian in the genealogy of this person. It was not for nothing that he had the nickname "Chinese" at the Institute of Oriental Studies, where he studied.
On September 11, 1998, Igor Sergeevich Ivanov replaced Primakov as Russian Foreign Minister.
Igor Sergeevich Ivanov, the third foreign minister of the Russian Federation (photo from here).
He received the Russian surname from his dad, information on which could not be found on the Internet (and as we already know, the surname can be deceiving). But the origin of the mother is well known.
Mother - Elena (Eliko) Sagirashvili - a traffic police officer, a native of the Georgian village of Akhmeta, located in the Pankisi Gorge. ()
Igor Ivanov's mother is Elena Davydovna Sagirashvili, originally from the city of Tianeti, north of Tbilisi. ()
In general, the fact that Mr. Ivanov is not Russian can be clearly seen from his photograph, without any biographies.
We wrote above that Ivanov replaced Primakov. In fact, all the years while Primakov was minister, Ivanov was his first deputy. After becoming prime minister, Primakov recommended Ivanov for the post of foreign minister. For those who did not understand - one non-Russian with Georgian roots gave the position to another non-Russian with Georgian roots.
Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov, the fourth Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation (photo from here).
Here you and Russian name, and Russian patronymic and "Russian" surname on "ov". When I look at this face, it is obvious to me without any evidence that in front of me is at least a half-khach. But for those who want facts ...
At a meeting with students at the Russian-Armenian Slavic University, one of the students asked Sergey Lavrov if his Armenian roots helped him in his work. To which Mr. Lavrov, whose father is an Armenian from Tbilisi, replied: "My roots are actually Georgian - my father is from Tbilisi, but my blood is really Armenian" ()
I have not yet found information on Lavrov's mother. Apparently we have to wait until he, like Primakov, begins to write his memoirs.
I will not bore the reader with a discussion of how it turned out that in the Russian state the post of foreign minister has been occupied by various Jews, Armenians and Georgians for at least 15 years (we will talk about ministers of the Soviet period separately). Just remember that if you are Russian, then you and your children will have a very difficult struggle for a place in the sun. Nerus, occupying places in prestigious universities and high official positions, he will not give them up just like that, which means that any Russian will have to be several times better in order to win the competition.

Did you know Sergey's biography?
Sergey Lavrov is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and many people are interested in his biography, nationality and origin. Most likely, this is due to the fact that there is not a lot of information on this topic in the media. He is known for his services as a minister, experience working with global organizations and representing his country for over ten years in the United Nations.
Sergei Lavrov is known as the Minister of Foreign Affairs in Russia, his biography is rich in events, and disputes about nationality are still ongoing, however, based on official sources, he is Russian.
Date of birth - 03/21/1950, hometown - Moscow. The father of S. Lavrov is considered an Armenian from Tbilisi, and the surname of the politician and his father are different, since he took the surname of his mother, more sonorous. Mother worked in the Ministry of Foreign Trade in the Soviet Union.
According to information about the fate of Sergei Lavrov, his parents worked in foreign trade, and most of their acquaintances were directly or indirectly involved in this case. Perhaps this was the reason for the choice of such a profession by Sergei L. in the future.
The training of the future foreign minister took place in Noginsk. He attended an advanced school in English. In addition to languages, he enjoyed studying hard sciences such as physics. Lavrov made progress in his studies and received a silver medal upon graduation. After that, he applied for admission to two higher educational institutions - the Institute of International Relations and the Engineering Physics University. At MGIMO, tests before admission began earlier, because Lavrov managed to become a student of this particular institution. This was not only his desire, but also the dream of his parents.

However, these words do not need to be taken in the literal sense. He was never subjected to violence, and education took place exclusively with the help of words that could have a stronger effect than physical impact.
