question about copyright in Russia

Fri Feb 2 19:04:08 UTC 2001

Dear Colleagues,

Does anybody know when the former Soviet Union joined the
international copyright agreement? I know that before a certain date
all the materials from the Soviet Union were copyright-free, and then
finally the Soviet Union signed a copyright law.
I would be very grateful for your help,
