After serving in the Ministry of Justice until 1891 he moved to the Ministry of the Interior becoming Minister from 1895-1899. Goremykin was a loyal supporter of Nicholas II, the autocracy and conservative policy. However during his tenure he submitted a proposal to the Emperor advocating administrative reform and the expansion of the Zemstvo program and representation within the existing Zemstvos. He left the position of Minister of the Interior due to opposition to this program. He succeeded Sergei Witte as Chairman of the Council of Ministers (Prime Minister) in May, 1906. However, as a unwaivering opponent of the political reform demanded by the First Duma he was ineffective. He was forced to resign in July, 1906, and was replaced by his Minister of Interior Peter Stolypin. He again served as Chairman of the Council of Ministers (Prime Minister) from 1914 to 1916. His unwillingness to work with the State Duma during both terms as Chairman greatly impaired the effectiveness of the Russian Imperial Government. The ineffectiveness of the second term, which was during the First World War contributed to the downfall of the Russian Monarchy. ...more on Wikipedia about "Ivan Goremykin"
