Upon the execution of his master, he entered the service of the palace in Istanbul. In 1638, he was promoted to be a vizier, and in 1640, he was assigned as the Kapudan Pasha (Admiral of the Navy). In 1642, he was tasked with recapturing the fort of Azov (in modern Russia) from the Cossacks, but failed. He was then assigned to various cities as governor, including Erzurum, Diyarbakır (both in modern Turkey) and Silistra (in modern Bulgaria). On 5 March 1651, he was promoted to be the grand vizier during one of the most chaotic periods of the empire, known as the Sultanate of Women. The period was marked by palace intrigues, and Siyavuş Pasha could not cope with palace politics. On 27 September, a little more than a month after his appointment, he was dismissed from his post and was about to be executed when the Valide Sultan Kösem intervened to save his life. He was appointed as the governor of Bosnia. Although Abaza Siyavuş Pasha was again promoted to the post of grand vizier on 5 March 1656, he died soon afterwards on 25 April."@en }
