The Ottoman Empire gave Russia access to the mouths of the Danube and the fortresses of Akhaltsikhe and Akhalkalaki in Georgia . The Sultan recognized Russia's possession of Georgia (with Imeretia , Mingrelia , Guria ) and of the Khanates of Erivan and Nakhichevan which had been ceded to the tsar by Persia in the Treaty Of Turkamanchai a year earlier. The treaty opened the Dardanelles to all commercial vessels, thus liberating commerce for cereals, live stocks and wood, although it took the Treaty Of Unkiar Skelessi (1833) to settle the Straits Question between the signatories. The Sultan granted autonomy to Serbia , promised autonomy for Greece , and allowed Russia to occupy Moldavia and Walachia until the Ottoman Empire had paid a large indemnity. |
