The first public printed newspaper in Russia was initiated by Peter the Great, whose decrees of December 16 and 17, 1702, led to the publication of trial issues that have not survived in print (only handwritten copies remain). Following along the lines of the 17th-century handwritten Vesti-Kuranty, Peter's newspaper contained little other than reports of military victories and diplomatic relations, either composed by the tsar himself or translated from Dutch newspapers according to his choice. With Peter's death in 1725, ownership of the paper was transferred to the Russian Academy of Sciences, which renamed it to Sankt-Peterburgskie Vedomosti (that is, Saint Petersburg News) in 1728.
