The Soviets were Allies on paper, but we let them do their thing while we did ours. It’s not like our troops fought side-by-side with them like we did with the Brits, Canadians, Australians, etc. a true case of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
In China’s case, we were allied with Chang Kai-shek’s nationalist Kuomintang government, and not Mao’s communists. We gave them material support, and in some cases did fight side-by-side with them. What is Taiwan now is who we were actually allied with.

What you say is true to some degree but I can assure you Russia and China are in conflict with us directly and have been for over 100 years. I work in this field (DOD contracting).
OK. Thanks for the input and congratulations.
