Question

1) True
2) False

Answer 1

The statement that the Soviet Union maintained its alliance with Eastern European countries and the Warsaw Pact after its collapse in the early 1990s is false. The correct answer is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Soviet Union did not maintain its alliance with Eastern European countries and the Warsaw Pact after its collapse; this is false. The Warsaw Pact dissolved along with the Soviet Union in 1991.The Warsaw Pact was a military alliance between the Soviet Union and the communist nations of Eastern Europe from 1955 until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. When the Soviet Union disbanded, it could no longer maintain its alliances or the Warsaw Pact, which also dissolved as a result. This dissolution marked the end of the Cold War era and led to significant geopolitical shifts, including the expansion of NATO that later included some of the former Eastern Bloc states and former Soviet republics. The correct answer is 2.

Answer 2

The Soviet Union did not maintain its alliance with Eastern European countries and the Warsaw Pact after its collapse in the 1990s.

This correct answer 2) False

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is False. The Soviet Union did not maintain its alliance with Eastern European countries and the Warsaw Pact after its collapse in the 1990s.

The Warsaw Pact was a military and political alliance formed by the Soviet Union and the communist nations of Eastern Europe in 1955. Its purpose was to defend against the threat posed by NATO and the Western Bloc.

However, in the late 1980s, as communism began to weaken and independence movements arose in Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union was unable to respond effectively. This led to the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.
