Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FRA-GAE
FUAD PASHA (1815-1869) , Turkish statesman, was the son of the distinguished poet Kecheji-zade Izzet Molla. He was educated at the medical school and was at first an army surgeon. About 1836 he entered the civil service as an official of the foreign ministry. He became secretary of the
embassy
  in London; was employed on
special
  missions in the principalities and at St
Petersburg
  (1848), and was sent to
Egypt
  as
special
 
commissioner
  in 1851. In that year he became minister for foreign affairs, a post to which he was appointed also on four subsequent occasions and which he held at the time of his death. During the Crimean War he commanded the troops on the Greek frontier and distinguished himself by his bravery. He was Turkish delegate at the Paris conference of 1856; was charged with a mission to Syria in 186o; grand
vizier
  in 186o and 1861, and also minister of war. He accompanied the
sultan
  Abd-ul-Aziz on his journey to
Egypt
  and Europe, when the freedom of the city of London was conferred on him. He died at Nice (whither he had been ordered for his
health
 ) in 1869. Fuad was renowned for his boldness and promptness of decision, as well as for his ready wit and his many bons mots. Generally regarded as the partisan of a pro-
English
  policy, he rendered most valuable service to his country by his able management of the foreign relations of Turkey, and not least by his efficacious
settlement
  of affairs in Syria after the massacres of 186o.
