Although after the end of World War II, the United States has always looked at the Soviet Union unpleasantly, but the United States never dreamed that such a large Soviet Union would suddenly announce its disintegration, in December 1991, with the sickle and hammer flag landing from the Kremlin, it also means the end of an era, and there is no Soviet Union in the world again.
At that time, after the "blue, red, and white tricolor" representing Russia was fluttered over the Kremlin, Yeltsin also took over the significant "nuclear box" from Gorbachev's hands, and as the Soviet Union became history, the era of belonging to Russia also began.
After Yeltsin came to power, the Russian people hoped that they could quickly achieve economic prosperity and let them all live a good life like that of developed countries, but during Yeltsin's eight years in power, Russia not only did not achieve economic prosperity, but the situation became worse and worse.
For the Russian people, Yeltsin is an "incompetent" **, but what people did not expect is that for the Chinese, Yeltsin's contribution to our country is great, so what is going on?
Let's take a look at what's next!
Yeltsin was in power for eight years, visited China four times, and in his diplomacy with China, he showed great sincerity every time, you must know that at that time our country was far from being as strong as it is today, but Yeltsin was willing to carry out in-depth cooperation with our country, especially willing to help China develop a modern military.
In addition, during Yeltsin's administration, he also took the initiative to return part of the territory that was originally part of our country that was taken away during the Tsarist period, which also made him very respected and loved by the Chinese people, who regarded him as a "friend" of China.
So how did Yeltsin help our country develop a modern military?
This has to start with Yeltsin after he came to power. At that time, not only the Russian people were looking forward to economic prosperity, but Yeltsin was also the same; after he came to power, he not only maintained friendly relations with our country, but also wanted to make friends with the United States in order to develop the economy.
As a result, unexpectedly, the United States held back its bad stomach and directly recommended to Yeltsin the "shock **" and asked Yeltsin to find a way to achieve economic freedom, economic privatization, and economic stabilization.
Because this method once rescued Bolivia from its predicament when it encountered an economic crisis, Yeltsin was also convinced, so after he returned to China, he immediately began to engage in "shock **" in Russia, but he did not expect that the economy did not develop, and Russia was really put into shock.
It is also because of this method that Russia's economic lifeline was quickly in the hands of several big families, and these big families became the "oligarchs" who controlled Russia's economic lifeline and even politics, making Russia's economic development a miasma, even if Putin vigorously rectified it after he came to power, the "oligarchs" problem has not been solved so far.
In addition, it is also because during the Yeltsin administration, Russia's economic development was not understood, but Russia became turbulent, so there were a series of things such as Chechen militants causing terrorist attacks everywhere and the West's refusal to allow Russia to join the European Union.
Seeing that Russia is becoming worse day by day under his own rule, Yeltsin is also very troubled, although it is already a lack of skills, but he is still ready to work harder, so Yeltsin gave up the "shock **" and began another means to try to revitalize the Russian economy, and this method was also not expected by everyone, that is, "arms trafficking".
It is also because of Yeltsin's decision that China has directly become the biggest beneficiary. Because at that time, the United States and the West had already launched a technological blockade on our country, although our country also wanted to develop national defense forces and knew the importance of modern military construction, but at that time, we lacked the best and the most technology, and we couldn't play it at all.
At that time, Yeltsin became the "nobleman" of our country's modern military development, because since Yeltsin began to vigorously sell arms, our country has purchased a large number of ** from Russia, and when purchasing, he also received relevant design materials through negotiations, which is equivalent to an introductory textbook for modern military construction for our country.
And in order to make money, and also to make a "good friend" for Russia, Yeltsin directly told our country at that time that as long as you are willing to buy, then you can pick whatever you want in the Soviet ** library. So my country immediately sent people to Russia and began to sign a large number of first-class procurement contracts with Russia, so that our country's national defense strength and modern military development have made rapid progress in just a few years.
And at that time, because Yeltsin had a good relationship with our country, he also took a lot of military technicians to come to our country for guidance and exchanges, it can be said that our country is also with the help of Yeltsin, trained a large number of military talents, and also mastered a lot of key technologies from these Russian military technicians, which also laid a solid foundation for the take-off of the Chinese industry.
During that period, our country also set up a secret project "934 Project", mainly to learn advanced military technology from Russia, so to speak, at that time, Yeltsin gave everything he could, and our country also spent a small amount of money to empty out the Soviet Union's military foundation left to Russia.
Later, relying on the imitation of Russian equipment, we also walked out of our own development path, and finally completed the modern military construction, so that after just twenty or thirty years of development, our Zhongli has been firmly ranked among the top three in the world.
To give a few examples: we relied on the study and imitation of "Su-27SK" and "Su-30MKK", "Su-30MK2", so that we successfully developed the "J-11" and "J-16", as well as through the study of destroyers and nuclear submarines purchased from Russia, so that we Cai successfully mastered the design ideas of large destroyers, which is now the Type 055 destroyer that is now being imitated by the world.
It can be said that if it were not for the fact that Russia had only one aircraft carrier in its hands back then, then I am afraid that our country would not have had the first aircraft carrier until 2012, and it is very likely that it would have had the first aircraft carrier several years in advance.
After Yeltsin, Putin became the second president of Russia, and after Putin came to power, his relationship with our country has been very good, especially in recent years, Sino-Russian relations have risen to a new height, and Sino-Russian cooperation has become more and more deep.
