In the final phase of the Council of Constance, from the middle of February to the end of April 1418, the third large Polish-Lithuanian delegation took part in the work, at the head of which stood the Metropolitan of Kiev, Gregory (Camblak/Tsamblak). The metropolitan had the charge from King Władysław Jagiełło and Grand Duke Witold (Vytautas) to convince the new pope, Martin V, to formalize a Church Union of the Orthodox dioceses with the Roman Church, by way of the subordination of the Orthodox dioceses. Camblak, however, behaved in accordance with the principles of Eastern ecclesiology and proposed that a decision be made at an Ecumenical Synod, which would be preceded by the intensive investigations of a bilateral commission. Such a conception no longer fit within the contemporary vision of Catholic exclusivity, and Camblak suffered a defeat. Nonetheless, his intervention, calling for the joining of both glories of the Church belongs to the strict canon of the most pertinent early ecumenical statements.
