. letter to Nesselrode Miliutin in the "Russian Antiquities" 1873,? 6). In the same era of striving for liberation, he insisted in a special note on increasing censorship severities.

He was appointed manager of foreign counterparts, but at the same time with him, as if in opposition to it, the Count Capodistria entrusted with foreign affairs. Thus, it was as if the two Foreign Minister, whose views on the tasks of Russian foreign policy far apart. The emperor served as the supreme conciliator and mediator between them, are much more inclined to the side Nesselrode, who accompanied him to the congress in Aachen, Troppau, Laibach and Verona.
