| Nubar Pasha at AllExperts (1144 words) |
 | Boghos Nubar Pasha (1825 - 1899) was an Egyptian statesman. |
 | Abbas Pasha, who succeeded Ibrahim in 1848, maintained Nubar in the same capacity, and sent him in 1850 to London as his representative to resist the pretensions of the Ottoman sultan, who was seeking to evade the conditions of the treaty under which Egypt was secured to the family of Mehemet Ali. |
 | The British government, under the advice of Baring, insisted on the evacuation of the Sudan, and Muhammad Sharif Pasha having resigned office, the more pliant Nubar was induced to become prime minister, and to carry out a policy of which he openly disapproved, but which he considered Egpyt was forced to accept under British dictation. |
