It seems that the 6th century military clashes between Byzantium and Iran stemmed, at least to some extent, from religious conflicts. The article offers an attempt to analyze the actions of the king of Iran - Xusrō I taken towards the Christians, especially during the periods of wars. One may observe a certain dose of tolerance towards the Christians in the policies of Xusrō I, as the persecutions were generally directed against the apostates from Masdaism. Xusrō I supported the Persian/Teodorian Church, with parallel attempts to subduing it to the crown. It seems that support of developing miaphysite Church aimed at strengthening Iranian influence in the border areas.
