Annotation: This article analyzes the events, actions and facts in the history of Kievan Rus, part of which became the territory of the Moldavian Principality, after its formation. These events and facts became the key and the basis of the good relations of the Moldavian Principality and the Moscow Kingdom, which ended with the establishment of the citizenship of the Moscow Kingdom over the Moldavian Principality. The purpose of this study is to form a scientific historical and legal framework proving the objectivity and pattern of such a historical and legal fact. The task of the study is to analyze facts from various sources of domestic, Moldavian and Romanian authors, reflecting the activities of secular and spiritual authorities in the rapprochement of the Moldavian Principality and the Moscow Kingdom in the 17th century. In the course of the study, general scientific and special research methods were used – systemic, analysis and synthesis, logical, historical, interpretation. As a result of the study, it was proved that it was during this period of time that the first normative act in the history of bilateral relations was signed, which established the official citizenship of the Moscow Kingdom over the Moldavian Principality.
