After WWI the US gave russia 8 billion rubles in aid that was never repaid. The rest of the allies added another 5 billion rubles. During and after WWII russia received 20 billion US dollars in aid from the US and Canada and never paid any back. 10 billion dollars in grain from the US in the 70's again never paid back. Without aid from the the billions of dollars of aid from the allies there wouldn't be a russia today. In your opinion, how has this affected relationships between russian and the West?

Greetings,
The conflict then as now is one of ideology's, the debt owed by Russia will never be paid back as long as Communism rules the land. Even then I doubt it will be.

verify your observe utilization, gave means Russia in no way had to pay off , yet trival. the rigidity (the chilly conflict) heated up while the u . s . a ., France and massive Britain as allies had the opinion to return the sovereignty to Germany and western Europe and Russia needed some form of revenge on Germany for conflict autrocities; such as administration. which they ended up doing in a warlike style.

I think countries get angry with the US for being so privileged and taking it for granted. We should stop doing that.
