Sažetak
The author examines the Russian and Montenegrin offensive onto the territory of Boka kotorska and Republic of Dubrovnik in 1806, and the role of Adam Jerzy Czartoryski in these developments. As commissioner of the Russian Foreign Ministry, the Polish count was determined to achieve his anti-Napoleon ideas. After the Treaty of Pressburg he tried to obstruct the recognition of French rule over the eastern coast of the Adriatic. However, Czartoryski’s plans failed to foresee that the advance of the Russian and Montenegrin forces in Boka kotorska and Dalmatia would result in bloody national conflicts. The Russians and Montenegrins plundered the Ragusan territory and terrorised its Catholic population, so that finally the resistance of the local people contributed to the success of Napoleon’s troops in this region.
