''Pravda'' (, "Truth") was the official newspaper of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and was one of the most influential papers in the country with a circulation of 11 million. The newspaper began publication on 5 May 1912 in the Russian Empire and emerged as a leading newspaper of the Soviet Union after the October Revolution. The newspaper was an organ of the Central Committee of the CPSU between 1912 and 1991.〔Merrill, John C. and Harold A. Fisher. ''The world's great dailies: profiles of fifty newspapers'' (1980) pp 242-49〕 After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, ''Pravda'' was sold off by Russian President Boris Yeltsin to a Greek business family, and the paper came under the control of their private company Pravda International.〔 In 1996 there was an internal dispute between the owners of Pravda International and some of the Pravda journalists which led to Pravda splitting into different entities. The Communist Party of the Russian Federation acquired the Pravda paper, whilst some of the original Pravda journalists separated to form Russia's first online paper (and the first online English paper) ''Pravda.ru'', which is not connected to the Communist Party. 〔 After a legal dispute between the rival parties, the Russian court of arbitration stipulated that both entities would be allowed to continue using the Pravda name. The Pravda paper is today run by the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, whereas the online Pravda.ru is privately owned and has international editions published in Russian, English, Italian and Portuguese. == Origins == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pravda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
