Change of Measures at Russian Court Shocks Europe
The report notes shifts after Peter III’s accession in Russia, aiming to pacify and tax concessions, with broader European moves. It cites Danish, French, and German intrigues, expected reforms at Versailles and Ratisbon, arrears in subsidies, and a large Allied provisioning for Portugal. It mentions pamphlet-like summaries of privateering, naval captures, and social events in Britain.
