Основное внимание уделяется прояснению фактологии, мотивов, характера и результатов имевшего место в мае-июне 1864 г. относительно активного формулирования британскими дипломатами в Турции и России предложений по данному вопросу и их попыток его постановки в международную повестку дня. Делается вывод о двойственной природе реакции официального Лондона на черкесский миграционный кризис и гуманитарную катастрофу, обусловленной общей логикой и реалиями англо-российского соперничества на османском Востоке с его вариабельностью «жесткой» и «мягкой» линий. Выявляются причины отказа в конечном счете английского правительства как от педалирования темы моральной и финансовой ответственности Петербурга за «нецивилизованные» методы экспансии на Кавказе, так и от кредитования черкесской колонизации в Анатолии, и ограничения лишь отправкой в Османскую империю умеренной гуманитарной помощи для беженцев. С другой стороны, рассмотренная корреспонденция полностью подтверждает и дополняет данные других источников о крайней неадекватности мер, принятых российскими и османскими властями для организации, соответственно, отправки и приема черкесов и обусловленных этим высоких уровнях смертности и страданий людей. В целом работа способствует лучшему пониманию роли британского фактора в процессах миграции и поселения северокавказцев в османских пределах. </p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article, based mainly on documents of British diplomatic correspondence, studies the approaches and moves of the Foreign Office in connection with the problem of the mass exodus of Circassians to the Ottoman Empire in 1863-1864. The main attention is paid to clarifying the facts, motives, nature and results of the relatively active formulation of proposals on this issue by British diplomats in Turkey and Russia during May-June 1864 and their attempts to put it on the international agenda. A conclusion is made about the dual character of the reaction of official London to the Circassian migration crisis and humanitarian catastrophe, conditioned by the general logic of the Anglo-Russian rivalry in the Ottoman East with its variability of the “hard” and “soft” lines. The reasons for the British Government’s ultimate refusal to both peddle the theme of St. Petersburg’s moral and financial responsibility for the “uncivilized” methods of expansion in the Caucasus and to finance Circassian colonization in Anatolia, as well as to limit itself to sending only moderate humanitarian aid to the refugees in the Ottoman Empire, are revealed. On the other hand, the examined correspondence fully confirms and supplements the data of other sources on the extreme inadequacy of the measures taken by the Russian and Ottoman authorities to organize, respectively, the dispatch and reception of Circassians and the high levels of mortality and human suffering caused by this. Overall, the work contributes to a better understanding of the role of the British factor in the processes of migration and settlement of North Caucasians within the Ottoman borders. </p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>черкесский исход 1863-1864 гг.</kwd><kwd>Российская империя</kwd><kwd>Османская империя</kwd><kwd>Британская империя</kwd><kwd>миграционный кризис</kwd><kwd>гуманитарная катастрофа</kwd><kwd>дипломатия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Circassian exodus of 1863-1864</kwd><kwd>Russian Empire</kwd><kwd>Ottoman Empire</kwd><kwd>British Empire</kwd><kwd>migration crisis</kwd><kwd>humanitarian catastrophe</kwd><kwd>diplomacy</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Архив внешней политики Российской империи.</mixed-citation><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Arkhiv vneshnei politiki Rossiiskoi imperii [Archive of Foreign Policy of the Russian Empire].</mixed-citation></citation-alternatives></ref><ref id="cit2"><label>2</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Берже А.П.
