“Count Carlo Andrea Pozzo di Borgo (French: Charles-André Pozzo de Borgo, Russian: Карл Осипович Поццо ди Борго, Karl Osipovich Potso di Borgo; 8 March 1764 – 15 February 1842) was a Corsican politician, who later became a Russian diplomat. He was an official representative of his homeland in Paris before entering the Russian diplomatic service. His life was dominated by opposition to Napoleon Bonaparte, driven by a life-long hatred of him from an early age, considering him a traitor.” (Carlo Andrea Pozzo di Borgo, Wikipedia)
