词条 | Jassy, Treaty of |
释义 | Jassy, Treaty of 1792 (Jan. 9, 1792), pact signed at Jassy in Moldavia (modern Iaşi, Romania), at the conclusion of the Russo-Turkish War (Russo-Turkish wars) of 1787–92; it confirmed Russian dominance in the Black Sea. The Russian empress Catherine II the Great had entered the war envisioning a partition of the Ottoman Empire between Russia and Austria and a revival of the (Greek) Byzantine Empire in Istanbul. Her plan failed, however, because of Austria's withdrawal from the war (Peace of Sistova, August 1791) and a lack of organized and massive support from Balkan Christians. The Treaty of Jassy confirmed the earlier Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca (1774) between the two states; it advanced the Russian frontier to the Dniester River, including the fortress of Ochakov, and restored Bessarabia, Moldavia, and Walachia to the Ottomans. |
