For the spatial three-body problem, the orbital stability of stationary triangular Lagrangian solutions is investigated. To the end of stability analysis, new equations coupling the mutual distances between bodies (mass points) are deduced. A theorem on the orbital instability of stationary triangular solutions related to circular orbits of mass points is proved.
