So, were the actions of the PRC guided by realpolitik (which requires abandoning grudges), or by grudges like these ones?
Also, not sure why you want to claim military cooperation between the USSR and the PRC being a bad thing.
Notably, they all happened a long while prior to the split, meaning that they couldn't have influenced the supposedly-realpolitikal reasoning for the relevant actions of the PRC.
You mean when the USSR was helping multiple national liberation movements in Africa, Asia, and the Americas against NATO colonialism? Those 'imperial ambitions'?
EDIT: Also, I find it rather ironic that I hold a much more realpolitikal position regarding the PRC than you do regarding the USSR and other Russian polities.
