Description:

Access to current content of Pravda (2010 - present).

Pravda (or "Truth") was the official voice of Soviet communism and
the Central Committee of the Communist Party between 1918 and 1991,
when Boris Yeltsin signed a decree closing Pravda down. Founded in 1912
in St. Petersburg, Russia, Pravda originated as an underground, daily
workers’ newspaper, and soon became the main newspaper of the
revolutionary wing of the Russian socialist movement.

After the collapse of the USSR, nationalist and communist
journalists intermittently published a print newspaper and an online
newspaper under the name Pravda. Today, Pravda represents the
oppositional stance of the Communist Party in the Russian Federation.
