Russia effectively scrapped the treaty in 1801, incorporating Georgian lands directly into the Russian Empire and deposing the Georgian monarchy.
The results of the treaty proved disappointing for the Georgians. Russia effectively scrapped the treaty in 1801 when, in violation of the agreement, it proceeded to directly incorporate Georgian lands into the Russian Empire and deposed the Georgian monarchy. The following years, marked by instability, culminated in 1801 with the official annexation of the kingdom by Paul I during the nominal ascension of Heraclius's son George XII to the Kartli-Kakhetian throne.
