The Treaty of Kurukove (Ukrainian: Куруківський Договір) was an agreement between Hetman Stanisław Koniecpolski of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and Mykhailo Doroshenko of the Ukrainian Cossacks. After four days of negotiations, it was signed on 5 November 1625 near Lake Kurukove, in what is now Kremenchuk. The treaty was a response to Marek Zhmaylo's uprising[1][self-published source][2] and a Crimean-Zaporozhian alliance under Mehmed III Giray. The treaty's provisions amounted to a compromise; Cossack liberties were extended, but not all the Cossack demands were met, which led to further tensions.
