Yes

Hint: however, not primarily known for his involvement in politics; not a politician in a strict sense.

We already know he was a European. I will not count this question.

Hmmm, how else can you be involved in politics without being a politician?
Not a new questions but clarification of your hint: I would consider all members of government or parliament politicians in the strict sense. Correct?

Fellow guessers: How should we proceed with this?
We could try to narrow down his country of origin. Right now it can be Russia, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Ukraine and Poland.
We could try to narrow down the date of his death.
We could try to get more information about his profession. Does anyone have a suggestion regarding persons who are involved in politics, but not strictly politicians.

I would consider 'politician' as a term describing a person whose professional activity concentrates on politics, that is governing, policy making, and execution.

As for the person in question, he was dedicated to other domains of activity, for which he's known, and his involvement in politics was rather of pragmatic nature at the level of a civilian consultant. He was a member of a political party, though, again, for practical reasons.
