Pakistan has a lot of T-80us made in Ukraine. I bet those end up being sent back.

It's true, but Sino-Soviet relationships was already recovering by the time he was in charge. Plus collapse of Soviet Union has a lot of negative on China too. Overall I say jury is still out if you look at it from purely Chinese perspective and definitely way negative from Russian perspective.
Hell once upon a time Ukraine could build things like Varyag and An-225, now they're down to exporting wheat and women.
USSR-Chinese relations were fine in Gorbachev's time.
If anything the USSR disintergrating led to China become enemy number one of America, although luckily the GWOT kept the west too occupied to do much.
It doesn't change much, I'm sure Putin will restore the USSR to Warsaw Pact borders by the end of winter

Lol keep singing that tune until your blue in your face, and you're still pretty much wrong on this one. Which western countries that have opened up their respective economies and are seeing double digit growth or even marginal growth? Take Sweden for example, a country that never closed it's borders or imposed western style lockdowns which resulted into the deaths of it's much older population that both the government and people of that country largely accepted as the price to pay. But how has the Swedish economy performed? Have they performed dramatically different and has economic growth in amazing numbers? NOPE!!
As a matter of fact, "The European Commission earlier this month cut its 2022 growth for Sweden to 1.3%, its lowest across the 27-member bloc." How's that for their updated excellent covid-19 policy you keep yammering about.
Second-quarter gross domestic product grew 1.4% (WOW Amazing number) from the previous three months, according to preliminary data from Statistics Sweden. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg had on average expected 0.7% growth, and the highest estimate was for 1.1% expansion.
The data released Thursday shows an unexpectedly large rebound from a contraction at the beginning of the year. Still, the largest Nordic economy is facing an uncertain future with consumers at their gloomiest since the mid-1990s and key trading partners in the euro area teetering on the brink of a recession. Man, I thought, by opening up your economy the magic rebound western experts have been shouting on the rooftops that even monkeys can understand would produce amazing results..
As I've said before, EROEI makes no sense when you're talking about an unlimited solar energy supply.
But even if you believe in EROEI as a limitation, look at the example in Fujian province below.
500W of solar panels requires about 1000 KWh to make.
If you assume these are standard P-Type panels with a 25 year guarantee, you get an EROEI of 18.2
Again, if these were to be N-Type, then should get an EROI of 27+, which is comparable to coal or gas today.
So it's not just sunny deserts where solar panels have a high EROEI.
If you look at the insolation map below, Fujian (and much of China) receives a similar level of solar radiation as Northern Europe or Russia. The rest of the world generally receives more sun.

At least he got pizza ad to remember him. Seriously though I thought he was in US, the least they could do after using him to suicide the USSR is to let him retire handsomely in US. Should be fitting as his biggest accomplishment
Well, the collapse of the Soviet Union meant Ukraine was free to peddle in whatever Soviet technology they had, which was a lot.
China bought many things from Ukraine and hired many engineers from Ukraine.
This also meant a lot to North Korea and Pakistan as Ukrainian Yuzhmash provided a lot of assistance to their missile programs that Western Intelligence had initially believed to come from China.
If USSR stayed we would be flying in Concord 2.USSR-Chinese relations were fine in Gorbachev's time.

USSR collapse changed the direction of West away from what made it successful.
