Historians Yegor Yakovlev and Boris Kipnis continue their series on the era of Empress Catherine the Great. Now they will talk about the Russo-Turkish War of 1787-1791. What was the "detonator" of the military conflict? Why did a new Byzantium have to appear as a Russian satellite? How did the European courts, who wanted to support Turkey, view what was happening? What did Grigory Potemky propose to do, and how did the hostilities unfold? This and much more is in the new video from Digital History.
