RUSNET.NL :: Encyclopedia :: I :: Ivanov, Igor (490 words)
Igor Ivanov, known for his suave defence of Russian interests abroad, is loath to call himself an influential European.
Ivanov, who inherited the Foreign Ministry from Yevgeny Primakov, may wear custom-tailored Milanese suits and have spent nearly 15 years in Madrid first as a trade representative and then ambassador, but his thinking is thoroughly, proudly, defiantly, Russian.
Ivanov called the surprise deployment "a mistake" and vowed that the troops would soon be removed.
