Look at it this way, USSR collapsed, former USSR states were poor, Ukraine was badly hit. There were no orders for the manufacturing, they would be going out of business. Ukrainian engineers found a way out by moving with their families to China and they made great significant contribution to China's development in return they are well taken care of for the rest of their lives. The legacy continues to live on in China, better China than the West which will in turn use it against both China and Russia. Many former USSR states became Western puppets so it's going to depend on China and Russia to balancing the West otherwise everybody would be bowing to these AngloSaxons.
