About this person

Alexander Ageevich Abaza was a Russian politician. He was one of the most liberal advisors of Alexander II of Russia. He served as the minister of finance from October 27, 1880, to May 6, 1881, and unsuccessfully urged the tsar to transform Imperial Russia into a constitutional monarchy. After Alexander II's assassination and the accession of Alexander III, reformers like Abaza were removed from power. In his career he also served as State Comptroller (1871-1874) and as chairman of State Council's Department of the State Economy. He was a recipient of the Order of the White Eagle, the Order of Saint Vladimir, the Order of Saint Anna and the Order of Saint Stanislaus.
