94 the lesser evil
(the lesser evil (тж. the lesser of two evils))наименьшее зло; см. тж. of two evils choose the leastThe agreement between Lincoln and the Radicals was not, as some have since said, a choice of the "lesser evil" by the latter. Up to the time of the split, Lincoln had headed the joint group of revolutionary forces; and despite his many weaknesses and errors, the movement was making progress under his leadership - with heavy pressure from the Radicals. (W. Foster, ‘The Negro People in American History’, ch. 24) — Вопреки утверждению многих, соглашение между Линкольном и радикалами не было для последних выбором "меньшего зла". Вплоть до раскола Линкольн руководил объединенными силами, и, несмотря на все его слабости и ошибки, движение делало успехи под его руководством при сильном давлении со стороны радикалов.
