This article presents the Russian operation in European newspapers from the beginning of 1768 when St. Petersburg, seeking to force the Polish Sejm to grant special rights for religious dissidents, directed his actions against the Warsaw nunciature, which resisted these actions in defense of the rights of Catholics. Due to the withdrawal of Tsarina Catherine II from her actions against the nunciature, the whole action, which began in March 1768, was quickly terminated.
