Drafts (in both English and Persian) of the peace conditions offered by the Russian plenipotentiary General Obreskoff [Aleksandr Mikhailovich Obreskov] to the Kaim Mukam [Mirza Abū al-Qāsim Farāhānī, Qāʾim-Maqām], the Vizier of the Crown Prince of Persia [Iran], at the peace conference held at Kara-Melek on 3 November 1827, with regard to the conclusion of the war between Russia and Persia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828]. The terms include demands for the territorial cession from Persia to Russia of the khanates of Erivan [Yerevan], Nukshirvan [Nakhchivan] and Talish, and for reparations of fifteen crores of tomans [Persian currency], in return for the evacuation of Azerbijan [Azerbaijan] by Russian troops.
