1512 CE

The relationship between Muscovy and Lithuania has remained tense despite the mutual peace signed by the two countries.

Sigismund I has demanded extradition of Michael Glinski for trial, while Vasili III demands better treatment of his widowed sister Helena.

Vasili also discovers that Sigismund is paying Khan Meñli I Giray to attack the Grand Duchy of Moscow.

Albert of Prussia has at the same time become the Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights and is unwilling to acknowledge Poland's suzerainty as required by the Second Peace of Thorn (1466).

The tension will eventually result in the Polish–Teutonic War (1519–21) and ally Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor with Vasili III.

Muscovy had in December 1512 invaded the Grand Duchy of Lithuania with a goal to capture Smolensk, a major trading center.
