Polish-Russian Peace Treaty (1686)
"Treaty of Perpetual Peace" "Grzymułtowski Peace"

Signed	1686
Location	Moscow
Condition	1686-1772
Signatories	Voivod of Poznań Krzysztof Grzymułtowski Chancellor (kanclerz) of Lithuania Marcjan Ogiński Russian Knyaz, Vasily Vasilyevich Golitsyn

The Polish-Russian Peace Treaty of 1686, officially known as Treaty of Perpetual Peace Russian: Вечный мир, Lithuanian: Amžinoji taika, Polish: Pokój wieczysty but also known in Polish tradition Grzymułtowski Peace, Polish: Pokój Grzymułtowskiego) was concluded between the Tsardom of Russia and the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth to finally end the Russo-Polish War (1654–1667). It was signed in Moscow on 6 May 1686 by Polish–Lithuanian envoys Krzysztof Grzymułtowski, Voivode of Poznań and Marcjan Ogiński, Chancellor of Lithuania, as well as the Russian knyaz Vasily Vasilyevich Golitsyn. These parties were incited to cooperate after a major geopolitical intervention in Ukraine on the part of the Ottoman Empire.^[1]

The treaty confirmed the earlier Truce of Andrusovo of 1667.^[1] It consisted of a preamble and 33 articles. The treaty secured Russia's possession of Left-bank Ukraine plus the right-bank city of Kiev.^[2] 146,000 rubles were to be paid to Poland as compensation for the loss of the Left Bank.^[2] The region of Zaporizhian Sich, Siverian lands, cities of Chernihiv, Starodub, Smolensk and its outskirts were also ceded to Russia, while Poland retained Right-bank Ukraine. Both parties agreed not to sign a separate treaty with the Ottoman Empire.^[2] By signing this treaty, Russia became a member of the anti-Turkish coalition, which comprised Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Holy Roman Empire and Venice. Russia pledged to organize a military campaign against the Crimean Khanate, which led to the Russo-Turkish War (1686–1700).

The treaty was a major success for Russian diplomacy. Strongly opposed in Poland-Lithuania, it was not ratified by the Sejm (parliament of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth) until 1710.^[2]^[3] The legal legitimacy of its ratification has been disputed.^[4] According to Jacek Staszewski, the treaty was not confirmed by a resolution of the Sejm until the Convocation Sejm (1764).^[5]

The borders between Russia and the Commonwealth established by the treaty remained in effect until the First Partition of Poland in 1772.
