@robertscott961 Lol The USSR did not lose in Afghanistan. The USSR, supported by the government of Afghanistan, controlled almost the entire territory. Separate gangs of Basmachi and Taliban hid in the mountains and were supplied with weapons from the United States and from Pakistani territory. They carried out terrorist attacks and could do nothing more. The USSR withdrew from Afghanistan and stopped economically supporting the government due to restructuring within the country and other economic problems, making no sense to support Afghanistan. The troops came out in parade with their weapons, leaving a large backlog of social infrastructure for the assistance provided to Afghanistan. Afghanistan then fought the Taliban itself and held out for ten years. And the United States fled, clinging to the landing gear of the planes, abandoning all weapons6 and the government immediately fell under the onslaught of the Taliban.

@NotaGabeItch The United States lost to North Korea, as it suffered heavy air losses in fighters and bombers. Many US pilots were captured by the USSR, as 10 USSR fighters destroyed entire squadrons of NATO aircraft in the skies of Korea. As a result, the confrontation stopped and divided Korea, since no one had advantages and the United States suffered its luck and agreed on the division of Korea with different economic foundations.

@robertscott961 What is Google now, historical facts and documents? There are a lot of things that have been distorted, especially on Wikipedia.
