Alexander Kazembek (White émigré)

Alexander Lvovich Kazembek (Russian: Алекса́ндр Льво́вич Казембе́к, or Казем-Бек; French: Alexandre Kasem-Beg; 15 February [O.S. 2 February] 1902, Kazan – 21 February 1977, Moscow), often spelled Kazem-Bek or Kasem-Beg, was a Russian émigré and political activist, and founder of the Mladorossi political group.

Kazembek was born into a wealthy noble family of Azeri and Iranian origin. His grandfather and namesake Alexander Kazembek was a prominent Russian scholar, member of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the British Royal Asiatic Society. After the October Revolution and the White Army's loss of Povolzhye and Siberia, the Kazembeks emigrated to Belgrade (where Kazembek finished high school) and later to Munich. In 1925, Kazembek graduated from Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris and started working at a credit union in Monte-Carlo, Monaco. In 1929, he returned to Paris already as a famous political activist within Europe's Russian community. In the 1920s, Kazembek founded the Mladorossi. His charismatic persona, clear ideas and oratorical abilities led to strong support of his leadership by many White émigrés.
