Soviets (Russia and other)win Cold War. Can you do it? Or is this ASB?
After more than ten years, it can be stated: It's not ASB, nope!
Probably the best would be Switzerland. It's a neutral state, so there would be little fear by the KGB of being spied on by a Swiss student in Moscow.
You are naive.

In Addition, some the later "Dissidents" of Eastern bloc have studied in the West. Of course, it financed the KGB.
OTL:
...It is also obvious that by using such strategy [these operations require], they are therefore clearly involving the best trained communist intelligence personnel that is capable of achieving any kind of desired results.
The common signs that such people are active in these kind of infiltration and subversion operations, as they are at the same time aggressively spreading the deception about the "genuine collapse of communism", are as follows:
1) All such people have had [or still have] one time or another contacts, jobs and or financial support from the present "former" communist regimes of Eastern Europe and Russia.
2) Such agents are connected to various known communists, through their businesses and organizations, their connection is not presented as a bad thing, it is shown as that the communists were forgiven their past crimes against the people, and that the people should just forget justice and forgive the still not penitent communist criminals...
The protection from public justice for the former communist hardliners by the new "democratic" regimes is just another sign how such regimes are only fronts for the communists and their security services.
3) The common sign is also the official biography of such agents. In many cases it is very short, never includes the important information where such people come from, who were their parents during the openly communist era, whether these people were able to study on prominent communist colleges and universities, whether they have received any degree in law, science, theology and philosophy, any kind of post in such fields during the communist era etc.
4) Common sign is also when these people promote the collapse of communism as genuine, as they never support, and in fact actively oppose, any kind of genuine investigation of the crimes of communism and subsequent full and true course of justice.
5) The institutions that are created by the Eastern European [communist] espionage are always very well connected in the West, through the communist agents of influence already in place. Their contacts involve any sphere of interest, including most of all the defense industry, government and intelligence agencies, national security and foreign [and also domestic] policy think tanks, and educational and religious centers and organizations. The supplied deception to such western entities is always part of the communist military strategy, it serves the communist goals only.
6) Such agents speak foreign languages very well, a sign that they were trained by foreign teachers [for that purpose recruited agents], they are always fully concentrated and very well behaved, they are trained to be the most charming personalities so to divert any kind of suspicion about their true tasks while they operate in the enemy territory.
The most common sign is these people are very knowledgeable about [for example] American life and system of government, their English allows them to explain in detail various aspects of what they are experts in, they also know exactly how to avoid any kind of personal discussions about themselves or their cover story is always prepared....
7) Ordinary people in any communist country have never had access to any good higher education, and people who present themselves as dissidents cannot have such good education period. The communist regimes would NEVER allowed that to happen. To be accepted to study any kind of strategic sphere of interest, on the college level, you simply had to be a communist cadre or already recruited communist agent, or a potential candidate for recruitment - there is NO exception !
8) Such people, based on their age [which in some cases they purposely lie about to make them look younger and to cover up the fact that they were able to get college degrees during the openly communist era], their English and also their expert knowledge tells us that they had to study college during the communist era, as English language studies in such substantial volumes were only offered at the college levels. So for that matter these agents had to also take mandatory [every college] course of Marxism-Leninism and pass exams, they had to know the ideology very well.
This kind of communist ideological indoctrination was part of every curriculum on every level of education, but at the college level the tests were taken most seriously and who didn't pass them, he or she was not allowed to continue to study - period.
9) It is a golden rule for every communist agent: "An agent who is not able
to gain a full confidence and trust inside the enemy territory, is not usable."
10) People whose official biography is "very short", who don't ever truly answer questions about their families and what was their status and position in the communist society during the openly communist era, such people must not be trusted from the beginning !
Their names could be code names used only for the operation, they can always be transferred to another directorate, under another name and legend, and they are most certainly being used for another part of the communist strategy, in entirely different field, their cover legend is carefully amended, their true background is always fully protected.
None of such agents like to take pictures of themselves, specially by the enemy, as their cover could be blown in case they are used under different name elsewhere.
11) These agents of influence and espionage officers also travel abroad a lot, to various international conferences, religious and public gatherings and so forth, they often give speeches, mostly, but not limited to, in perfect English, they are always on their best behavior as they are the protectors of the Perestroika fraud for the communists.
