Treaty of Åbo The Treaty of Åbo or the Treaty of Turku was a peace treaty signed between the Russian Empire and Sweden in Turku ( ) on 7 . August / 18 . August 1743 in the end of the Russo - Swedish War of 1741 - 1743 . By the end of the war , the Imperial Russian Army had occupied most of Finland , prompting Field - Marshal Trubetskoy and Chancellor Aleksey Bestuzhev to demand the application of uti possidetis principle in this case . By acquiring Finland , Russian politicians aspired to move the Swedish border considerably to the north , thus reducing the danger of Swedish attack on the Russian capital , Saint Petersburg . In the hope of gaining independence , the Finnish estates offered the ephemeral throne of their country to Duke Peter of Holsten - Gottorp , the heir apparent to the Russian Crown . Another party at the Russian court , represented by pro - Swedish Count Lestocq and Peter ' s Holsteinian relatives , proposed to return Finland to the Swedes in recompense for having his uncle , Adolf Frederick of Holstein - Gottorp , elected as heir to the throne of Sweden . Empress Elizabeth of Russia lent her support to the latter faction , partly because she fondly remembered Adolf Frederick ' s brother , her projected spouse who had died several months before the wedding could take place ( in June 1727 ) . According to the resultant treaty , Sweden ceded to Russia the areas east of the Kymi River with the fortress of Olavinlinna and the towns of Lappeenranta and Hamina . Hence , the Swedish border was moved to the north in accordance with the wishes of Bestuzhev ' s faction . On the other hand , the Swedes agreed to elect Adolf Frederick as the crown prince . This move exposed the country to the risk of war against Denmark , hence the Baltic Fleet sailed to Stockholm to protect the Swedish capital in case of Danish attack . The territories were incorporated into the Governorate of Vyborg . After the treaty , Russia came to control the southern part of Karelia . However , Elizabeth guaranteed religion , properties , laws and privileges of the inhabitants of ceded territories . For example , these territories had just a few years earlier adopted ( together with the rest of then - Sweden ) the 1734 General Law of Sweden .
