Russia and Prussia sign the Treaty of St. Petersburg. By the
terms of this agreement, Russia restores all the territory it had
seized from its Prussian neighbour, and a defensive and offensive
alliance is formed. This treaty removes Russia from the theatre of
the Seven Years' War, and allows Frederick II of Prussia to
concentrate his resources on his other European enemies.
