When it came to the interests of the state, questions of religion seemed to fade into the background for him. The cardinal said: “Both the Huguenots and the Catholics were in my eyes equally French-
So again the minister introduced the word “Frenchman”, long forgotten for strife, into use, and the religious wars that had torn the country apart for more than 70 years ended.
With the advent of Richelieu to power, there were serious changes in foreign policy. The long road to a high position was not in vain. The cardinal appreciated and realized his mistakes. He gradually gently began to lead the country away from Spain and returned it to the traditional course of the policy of Henry IV. Restoring ties with old allies, Richelieu methodically inspires Louis XIV with the idea of the need to repulse the excessive claims of Spain and Austria.

The Habsburg dynasty that ruled both empires was slowly swallowing up Europe, pushing France out of Italy and almost subjugating Germany. The Protestant princes, unable to resist the powerful pressure of Austria, surrendered one position after another. If not for the intervention of Richelieu, it is not known how this unequal struggle would have ended. The Catholic cardinal, not in the least embarrassed, began to subsidize the Protestant sovereigns and conclude alliances with them. The diplomacy of Richelieu, and most importantly, the French pistols, managed to breathe life and strength into the German principalities ready to capitulate, presenting an unpleasant surprise to the Habsburgs, confident in their victory. Thanks to the diplomatic and then military intervention of France, the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) was continued and ended with the complete collapse of the imperial designs of Austria and Spain. Before his death in 1642, Richelieu could proudly say to Louis XIII: "Now the song of Spain is sung." And these were not empty words.
During the war, the cardinal's idea of introducing France into "natural borders" was realized: there was a long-awaited unification of all historical territories - Lorraine, Alsace and Roussillon, which, after so many years of struggle, became part of the French kingdom.
