Failure of the negotiations

Answer
Failure of the negotiations between the Latin Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church in the aftermath of the Fourth Crusade led to the permanent East-West Schism. The negotiations were held in Constantinople between 1204 and 1206, but they ultimately broke down due to a number of factors, including the Latin Church's insistence on the supremacy of the Pope and the Eastern Orthodox Church's insistence on its own independence.
