Eternal Peace Treaty of 1686
- Eternal Peace Treaty of 1686
The Eternal Peace Treaty of 1686 (Polish: "Pokój wieczysty" or "Pokój Grzymułtowskiego", Russian: Вечный мир, _lt. Amžinoji taika) was a treaty between Tsardom of Russia and Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, signed by Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth envoys: "voivod" of Poznań Krzysztof Grzymułtowski and chancellor ("kanclerz") of Lithuania Marcjan Ogiński and Russian "knyaz" Vasily Golitsyn on May 6 1686 in Moscow. It confirmed the earlier Treaty of Andrusovo of 1667. It consisted of a preamble and 33 articles. The treaty secured Russia's possession of the Left-bank Ukraine, Zaporozh'ye, Seversk lands, cities of Chernihiv, Starodub, Smolensk and its outskirts, while Poland retained Right-bank Ukraine. Both parties agreed not to sign a separate treaty with the Turkish sultan. By signing this treaty, Russia became a member of the anti-Turkish coalition, which comprised Poland, the Holy Roman Empire and Venice. Russia pledged to organize a military campaign against the Crimean Khanate, what lead to a war against the Ottoman empire. The treaty was a major success for Russian diplomacy. It marked a turning point in Russo-Polish relations and played a big part in the struggle of Eastern European peoples against the Turkish-Tatar aggression. Subsequently, it facilitated Russia's struggle with the Swedish for access to the Baltic Sea.
