How much did the Soviet Union help China back then?

In the early years of the People's Republic of China, the Soviet Union was almost the only country with which China had diplomatic relations. I think the greatest help is reflected in the help for China's economic recovery, which at that time was almost the only big brother in the world.

The Soviet Union was very helpful to China. The Chinese people are grateful. So until now, China is also very grateful to the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union is known as China's big brother, he extended a helping hand to China during China's poverty, and has helped in science and technology, life, and economy, and China was able to get out of difficulties in difficult times, all thanks to the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union's help to China was undoubtedly a relief in the snow, and it also trained experts and scholars for China in the attitude of teaching them to fish, thus laying the foundation for the development of New China. China can become the China it is today, and the Soviet Union has contributed a lot to it.

First of all, in the early days of the founding of the Communist Party of China, the Soviet Comintern was directly involved in the process of the founding of the Communist Party of China, helping and promoting the founding of the Communist Party of China. After the victory of the October Revolution, China's advanced intellectuals began to pay attention to the situation of the Soviet Russian revolution, especially with the widespread spread of Marxism in China, China produced a group of early communists. After the founding of the Comintern, it also paid close attention to the revolutionary situation in China, a large country in the East, and not only invited Chinese revolutionaries to attend the Congress of the Comintern, but also actively sent delegates to China to make contacts with people from all walks of life in China.

From 1920 onwards, the Comintern delegates to China began to focus their contacts on the early communists. The Comintern delegates to China made contributions to the founding and development of the Communist Party of China.

Secondly, at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, China experienced decades of war, and the newly established New China was in ruins, and the lack of cash exchange for the purchase of foreign exchange coupled with the blows of Western capitalist countries, China's economic development was in great difficulty. The Soviet Union began to send its own technicians and specialists to China to help China rebuild after the war, and the Soviet Union's economic aid was a relief for China at that time.

During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the Soviet Union not only agreed to the request for assistance from aircraft, artillery and other equipment, but also strengthened China's military support to China again one month after China invested in the Korean War, and even made a half-price decision against China. Before the implementation of the First Five-Year Plan, Stalin not only agreed to a number of aid projects to China, but also put forward some suggestions for our First Five-Year Plan, which pointed out the direction for us and greatly improved production efficiency.

While receiving aid from the Soviet Union, China has always adhered to the principle of independence and self-determination, so when China's relations deteriorated many years later, China still relied on its own strength to develop and did not fall into the dilemma of resting on its laurels.

Financial assistance was provided to help China resume industrial production, guidance and education of Chinese specialists, political ideology was provided, and we were helped to manufacture.

First, financial help, secondly, the provision of talents, thirdly, to help us make steel, fourthly, to transmit advanced ideas, and fifthly, to help us create nuclear bombs.

In the military and in the medical field, they have a certain amount of help, and there are people who come to help us learn.

There are pros and cons.

Pros: 1. The north has one less powerful expander who may launch a surprise attack at any time, and China no longer has to worry about nuclear bombs and millions of heroes pouring down from the north;

2. The collapse of the Warsaw Pact system allowed China to further liberate itself in the ideological field and open up economically to the world;

3. The Cold War on the surface is over, and China no longer has to choose which one to be cannon fodder between the Eastern and Western camps;

4. Let China see the painful lesson of being subverted by the West through ideology, and peaceful evolution is no longer one of China's choices;

5. Changes in the world's political and economic system have given China the opportunity to become a major country in the world, especially in the economic aspect.

6. The weakened Soviet Union provided China with a huge market and technology**;

Disadvantages: 1. The collapse of the Soviet Union directly led to political turmoil in China, which in turn reversed the already close relationship between China and the United States;

2. China has become a new target for the capitalist world;

3. The collapse of the Soviet Union has brought about the proliferation of nuclear technology and the decline of nuclear binding, and the three countries that have newly declared nuclear weapons are all China's leading countries;

4. The United States has become the sole superpower, which has shifted its strategic focus to Asia, and China's living space has been further compressed;

5. Without the Soviet Union, Japan's military power is too strong;

6. The nuclear security relationship between China and the United States has become asymmetrical;

7. Russia's emerging national chauvinists treat China worse than the Soviet Union;

8. The entire Asian region has received Russian military technology, and in addition to India, Southeast Asia has also been equipped with advanced fighters and submarines.

On July 16, 1960, the Soviet Union suddenly sent a note to China, unilaterally tore up 345 expert contracts and contract supplements, and interrupted all aid to China. Before September 1, 1960, all Soviet specialists in China were evacuated.

In this way, the agreement signed by China and the Soviet Union on October 15, 1957 on the Soviet Union's assistance to China in new technologies such as rockets and aviation was completely torn up. All 16 Soviet surface-to-air missile experts in China were withdrawn, and at the same time, the Soviet Union's plan to sell five more sets of ground-to-air missile weapons to China was terminated.
