Answer:

The right answer is : 1. Russia denied financial aid to China when its Great Leap Forward failed. 2. Moscow kept its treaty with India even though India was at war with China, a fellow Communist state.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sino-Soviet split became a fact in the late 1950s and it was a public issue in 1960, though it was the result of a process of misunderstandings, controversies and mutual recrimination that had started in the previous years, after the death of Stalin, the paramount Soviet leader. Chairman Mao Zedong did not accept the criticism of Stalin made by Nikita Khrushchev, the new Soviet top leader. The border conflict with India also angered the Chinese Communists because of what they saw a disregard for China´s interest by the Soviet brethren.
