Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Ukraine on January 4, 1992, the two countries have maintained friendly diplomatic relations. How good is it? It can be said that the leapfrog development of China's defense research strength is inseparable from Ukraine's help. For example, in 1998, Ukraine, despite the strong opposition of Western countries, insisted on selling the Varyag aircraft carrier to China, and this was the result of the later "Liaoning".
Although only 68% of the aircraft carrier was built at that time, and Ukraine itself was unable to build it, Ukraine was able to sell it to China under pressure, and also presented aircraft carrier design drawings and engines to promote my country’s aircraft carrier research. It's rare.
In addition, when China needed diversified alternative weapons and equipment, Ukraine also sold the technology and weapons left over by the Soviet Union to China. Do you think that the relationship is ironclad? Besides, at that time, China's development in the aerospace field was very slow, because the cost of parts was extremely expensive, and even if my country's technology developed rapidly, it was not easy to develop them. However, Ukraine, which has a deep accumulation of aviation engines, not only helped us break through technical barriers, but also promoted the rapid development of our country's fighter jets. This shows how broad the areas of cooperation between the two sides are and how close the relationship is.
Of course, China has not treated Ukraine badly either. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Ukraine inherited a large amount of legacy from the former Soviet Union, including 1,272 intercontinental missile nuclear warheads and 2,500 tactical nuclear weapons. However, these were simply hot potatoes for newly independent Ukraine. In the end, Ukraine destroyed nuclear weapons, including nuclear bombs and bombers, under constant pressure from the United States and Russia.
In 1994, China provided Ukraine with a security assurance statement, “committing to unconditionally not use or threaten to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine as a non-nuclear-weapon state.” If Ukraine is invaded or threatened by nuclear weapons, China will also provide corresponding security assurances. This treatment But it is the only one in the world. After all, even the "all-weather strategic partner"-Pakistan Railway has not enjoyed it. This shows how good the relationship between China and Ukraine is.
However, after entering the new century, Ukraine began to pursue a foreign policy of “sparse Russia and pro-Europe”, and continued to show favor to Europe and the United States. Fall out. Later, the two countries repeatedly clashed over natural gas transit and other issues, so that the relationship became froze. In the end, Ukraine not only lost the Crimea Peninsula, but also plunged the eastern land into a civil war, and even disrupted the friendly cooperative partnership between Ukraine and Russia.
lost the Ukraine of Russia and soon fell into the arms of the United States. However, the Ukrainian people did not live a good life. Not only did they fail to feel freedom, democracy, and prosperity, they even lived worse than before. Since the end of the Cold War, Ukraine has begun to implement the policy of converting military industrial enterprises. However, without the strong financial support of the Soviet era, coupled with the lack of technical support, the market for civilian products is not broad, and military industrial enterprises have begun to lose a large number of scientific and technical personnel. The transition from military to civilian is facing considerable difficulties.
can't advance, and there is no way back. The development of Ukraine's military industry has also become difficult, and the economy has stagnated for a long time. In the past, they made big money easily with their big brother, but now they are now the second-worst country in Europe, with a per capita GDP only slightly stronger than Moldova, which has a population of more than 3 million.
Originally, Ukraine's industry and agriculture were relatively developed, and even had the reputation of "European granary", but now everything is gone. Many Ukrainian companies are crumbling on the verge of bankruptcy. Not only do the soldiers have to eat their stomachs, but the Ukrainian people have to leave their homes to find a way out. It is really embarrassing that many beautiful girls want to marry abroad.
