Damn a pretty common China regional L for some fucking reason.
When your foreign policy is "whatever is the opposite of the USSR"
Many such cases unfortunately. I do wonder what the world would look like had the sino-Soviet split not been as stupid as it was. Did Russia and China really dislike each other THAT much?
As bad as this sounds, but if it didn't play out as it did, I think the PRC would've collapsed or been close to collapse, or be like DPRK by the end of last century without the split. The split enabled Kissinger to do the whole opening up China thing, when the writing was on the wall for the USSR, which ultimately made it what it was today.
