Anatoly Anatoljewitsch Neratow (Russian: Анатолий Анатольевич Нератов) (born October 2, 1863 in the Russian Empire , † April 10, 1938 in Villejuif , France ) was a Russian diplomat . He was deputy to five foreign ministers under both the tsarist and provisional governments .

  • Under Sergei Sasonov , Neratov rose to become Deputy Foreign Minister, who he represented in 1911

  • Since Boris Stürmer was also prime minister, his Vice-Neratov effectively ran the Foreign Office in 1916

  • Nikolai Pokrowski took over the office from Neratov and gave it back to him in February 1917

  • Pavel Miliukov took over the official business in March 1917 and kept Neratov as vice

  • Even under Mikhail Tereshchenko , Neratov remained in office as vice-president until November 1917

Anatoly Anatoljewitsch Neratow was born during the uprising of 1863 in Russian Poland ; after the suppression of the uprising, his father Anatoly Ivanovich Neratov (1830-1907) was briefly the Russian governor of the Polish city of Kielce (1869-1871). However, Anatoly Anatoljewitsch grew up mainly in Saint Petersburg . After attending the Alexander Lyceum in Tsarskoye Selo , Neratov joined the Foreign Service around 1888 or 1890. From 1906 to 1910 he was initially Deputy Director of the 1st Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, from 1910 to 1917 then Undersecretary or Deputy Foreign Minister. Although he was not abroad once during his entire service life, Neratov even acted briefly as acting interim foreign minister four times in times of crisis:

The new People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs , Leon Trotsky , had sent his secretary Ivan Salkind to Neratov immediately after the October Revolution . Salkind called on Neratov to submit to the Council of People's Commissars and to surrender the secret diplomatic treaties from the archives of the Tsarist Foreign Ministry, which Neratov refused. Trotsky himself could not change his mind either. Instead, Neratov initially fled with some of the secret documents. As a result, Neratov was dismissed as Deputy Foreign Minister without pension entitlement in November 1917 , and Salkind took over his office. Finally, Neratov surrendered, the secret documents were confiscated and published. In early 1918, Neratov claimed that some of these published documents were forgeries, mere transcripts and summaries, or worthless notes. In the Russian Civil War he advised the " whites ", first under General Denikin , then his successor General Wrangel , who in April 1920 appointed him head of the Russian diplomatic mission in Constantinople . When the Entente evacuated Constantinople at the end of the Turkish Liberation War , Neratov fled into French exile. He died in Villejuif in 1938 in the Russian-French hospital, an institution of the ROVS military emigre association founded by General Wrangel in 1924 .
