This is an overstatement. These places are standing because they literally fought and WON against the US. Give them the credit they deserve.
I don’t think it’s taking away from their revolutionary achievements to say that they would have been crushed without the Soviet Union!
But there's also a serious difference between those two things. USSR =/= Russia.
True, I interpreted op as referring to both the ussr and Russia. If they are exclusively referring to the last 30 years, yes they’re incorrect. Regardless they would have perished on their own
Sure, but it is on the same level as claims that the USSR only defeated the Nazis because of the lend lease act. Material doesn’t fight on its own, and wars aren’t won without labor. You need both to be successful.
