Jul 25, 2023 at 13:02 comment added T.E.D. The Shining Path weren't your garden variety communists. Communist nations were about as likely to embrace Shining Path as Scientologists were to embrace Charles Manson, and for roughly the same reason.
Jul 25, 2023 at 7:50 comment added Jan Third question: Were Shining Path and those countries really compatible politically, or was it more like Iran and the IS (both Islamist) or Taliban and ISKP (both Sunni Islamist)? Are you aware that China and the Soviet Union were almost at war in the late 1960s?
Jul 25, 2023 at 7:46 comment added Jan Other question: Supporting those terrorists might mean that Russia etc. would possibly lose access to Peruvian markets and all trust and credibility within Peruvian politics. For what benefit exactly?
Jul 25, 2023 at 7:37 comment added Jan Any idea what is meant by "support" here? E.g. lots of countries have made statements about their support for the one-China principle while in practice they are doing nothing (less than nothing in some cases).
