1477:" with the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was concluded on April 21. Moscow undertook to break the peace with the Ottoman sultan and the Crimean khan and immediately send troops to the Crimean crossings to protect the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from Tatar attacks. The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth government, for its part, guaranteed that the Orthodox population in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth could not be forced into Greek Catholicism, and that the higher Orthodox clergy would be ordained by the Metropolitan of Kiev. However, this agreement could enter into force only after its signing by the King of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. As Jan Sobieski was on a military campaign in the Principality of Moldavia at that time, the treaty was confirmed by him only in the autumn of 1686. At the same time, Moscow decided to organize a military campaign against the Crimean Khan, an ally of the Ottoman Empire. This actual declaration of war on the Ottoman Empire almost crossed out the results of the mission of deacon Nikita Alekseev. On the way back from Constantinople, the Moscow ambassador, along with his diplomas, was arrested while passing through the Crimea. The Moscow government barely managed to release him by sending an important Tatar prisoner to the Crimean khan in exchange. As soon as Constantinople learned of Moscow's conclusion of an "eternal peace" with the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the position of Patriarch Dionysius became extremely unenviable. Opposition in the Synod immediately formed against him. Dissatisfied with Dionysius, the bishops accused him of secret ties with Moscow, citing the transfer of the Metropolis of Kiev to the Moscow patriarch. As a result, Dionysius lost his patriarchate two months after his official accession to the throne of Constantinople. In 1687, the Council of Constantinople condemned Patriarch Dionysius for the transfer of the Metropolis of Kiev to Moscow, assessing this act as simony, i.e. bribery, and deprived Dionysius of the patriarchal throne. Thus, the action of Patriarch Dionysius was declared illegal by the council.

Metropolitan of Kiev will take place under ancient Ukrainian rights, not by tsarist order. On 6 December 1657, Bishop Dionysius Balaban of Lutsk was elected Metropolitan of Kiev, Halych, and All Russia. But even after that, Moscow pressured Vyhovsky not to send to Constantinople for approval at the metropolis of the elected Dionysius, but to approve him as king. To which they were told that from the beginning of the holy baptism the Kievan metropolitans had received blessings from the Patriarch of Constantinople. In 1659 a "renewed" Pereyaslav agreement was signed under the new Hetman, Yuri Khmelnytsky. Prince Trubetskoy, taking advantage of the struggle for power among the Cossack officers and the absence of the Ukrainian Orthodox hierarchy at the Second Pereyaslav Council (there was only the Moscovite Archpriest M. Fylymonovych of Nizhny Novgorod), included a paragraph: the Patriarch of Moscow and All Great and Small and White Russia; and in the spiritual rights of St. the patriarch will not enter. " On this basis, Prince Trubetskoy appointed Bishop Lazar Baranovych mayor of the Metropolis of Kiev. Bishop Methodius received a special order from Moscow to influence the mood of Ukraine and incline it to Moscow; to perform this task better, Methodius was generously given money and a "sable treasury." However, neither the clergy nor the elders recognized Methodius. Hetman Ivan Somko strongly opposed him. The higher clergy loudly said that Methodius "lied" to himself in the king's episcopate, having no church merit.

During her stay in 957 in Constantinople, great effort was made to obtain the highest state title of "daughter" of the emperor, for which Olga privately (most likely in Kiev in 955) was baptized. In her mail, Olga had a priest, Gregory, as told in detail by Constantine the Crimson. After returning from Constantinople, the princess began to pursue a line to limit the influence of paganism in the state, violating the "demonic trebors" and building a wooden church of St. Sophia. However, Olga's actions did not give the desired results. Unable to gain political advantage from Byzantium, she turned her attention to the West, inviting clergy from the German kingdom that had risen under Otto I (936–973). According to German chroniclers, ambassadors from Princess Olga in 959 "asked to consecrate a bishop and priests for this people." In response, he sent an embassy to Rus, headed by Bishop Adalbert. However, in 962 he returned with nothing. Olga's activity did not find support and understanding in her immediate environment. Even his son Sviatoslav, despite his mother's persuasion, refused to accept Christianity, but his sons

Samoilovych and all the faithful children of the Metropolis of Kiev, in which he said that he gave the right to deliver the Metropolitan of Kiev and All Ukraine to the Moscow Patriarch, and ordered from now on to send all newly elected metropolitans for consecration. The Metropolitan of Kiev had to be the first to mention the name in the diptych of the Patriarch of Constantinople, so that it would be a testimony to the authority of the Ecumenical Throne over the Metropolis of Kiev. Nikita Alekseev presented Patriarch Dionysius with 200 gold and "three forty sables" for these documents, for which he received a handwritten receipt from Dionysius. It is noteworthy that in his letter to the Moscow tsars, the patriarch of Constantinople asked to send a "salary" for the other bishops who signed the act.

External adverse factors, such as the active action of the Catholic clergy, Jesuits and gentry of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth against the Ukrainian Church, overlapped with the internal problems of the Orthodox Church. Prior to his appointment to the metropolis, Metropolitan Sylvester was a civilian and demanded to collect tribute from parishioners. According to the testimony, Metropolitan Iona (Protasevych) sold the metropolis to his successor Ilia Kucha, under whom spiritual titles and monasteries were openly bought and sold. In this situation, at the end of the 16th century, two eastern patriarchs visited Ukraine. First, in 1586, the Patriarch of Antioch Joachim arrived, who, having become acquainted with the situation, granted the

Archimandrite of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra Zosima Valkevych in 1769 asked the Synod for permission to print Ukrainian primers, because the people do not understand Russian and do not want to buy them. However, the Synod not only did not allow, but ordered to take back the primers that were already on hand. The situation was similar in education. All lectures, without exception, have been taught in Russian at the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy since 1784.

Under the new metropolitan, Arseniy of Mohyla, the right of the
Metropolitan of Kiev was even more limited. In 1767, during the reign of Arseniy, elections were held to the "Commission for New Laws". Her orders to the clergy demanded that the Ukrainian Church be restored to its old rights. Of course, these appeals made a negative impression on Empress Catherine II.

But Moscow officials continued to pursue their policies. On the day of the arrival of the tsar's envoy Buturlin to Kiev, 16 January 1654, Metropolitan Kosiv conducted a prayer service in St. Sophia Cathedral. After the prayer, Buturlin reproachfully asked the metropolitan why he "never beat or wrote to His Tsarist Majesty's forehead about the accession of Ukraine, and did not seek His royal mercy for himself."
