2:10 Shekhar ji the soviet GDP figures are widely disputed because of the central command structure of the economy. Strictly speaking a Market with free floating prices is required for economic calculations, the Soviets had abolished both and all production was centrally controlled. The GDP figures of the USSR are all estimated using various methods, but none of them were directly measured. The standard of living in the USSR was never anywhere near the US in its entire existence. They boasted about their production numbers, but inefficiently producing a lot of low quality industrial goods does not produce a good standard of living.

Thank you Shekhar Saab 🙏

Good lessons for China

[@nandanrajeev2452]

For third world countries like India, USSR was a great partner. That special relationship is continuing through Putin's Russia. Let it be the Technology transfers or the Russian Vetoes on Kashmir in the UNSC, Russia has been the most important partner for India

Russia trying to gain the past glory through their weaponry. USA trying to gain the glory through being the best business companies in tech. China gaining past glory with their investment in high technology and world investment.

Russia was possessed by a "Demon". In the "Fatima Letters" the "Virgin Mary" stated that the "Bishop in White" and all this "Bishops" and to "Consecrate Russia". when that happened Russia fell apart and Soviet Union eventually lost and collapsed. It will not rise again.

[@HellBot-gi5si]

Both Russia and China are old agricultural empires not, industrial ones. Currently both are collapsing. Which means American is one one left standing and is only Super Power left in world.

[@mg.f.9023]

Russia bombed Ukraine on Christmas Day. Shows the character of Putin.

[@easwaransanthakumar297]

Russia wanted to be part of larger Western Civilization, however it was ignored and frowned upon by the Anglo Saxon countries.

[@HellBot-gi5si]

Russia is old agricultural city state of Moscow, it has never been a world power. It has nuclear weapons but Russians are not very good at developing their economy and so it is collapsing again this 21th time it has collapsed. So you need to make sure you are allied with the Americans.

[@soumaSR]

​@@HellBot-gi5siEven though I am the biggest fan of West/US for obvious reasons you are right, you cannot depend on a country with unlimited natural resources still having similar economic might as Italy.
