Geopolitical interests are similar, but USSR was a much more mighty beast geopolitically than Russia is currently, if only due to having Ukraine and Central Asia as core territory, and allies/vassals (puppets...) in Eastern Europe. Of course, 2022 has no comparison with 1982 technologically, but... (Also, USSR was "stuck" funding a lot of unprofitable agents and countries abroad, while Russia's main expenditure geopolitically, other than influencing Germany/France/EU, is Syria.) |
