Neverending Cold War

It's not so much are there any holes in this guy's scenerio so much as the fact that this guy's scenerio is one big hole
 
I chuckled at the Soviets launching a successful pro-Soviet coup in early '90s China and the new leadership 'successfully restoring Soviet-style communism' apparently overnight. The author's total lack of context about the fragility of early '90s China and the contempt for Soviet communism at that time is somewhat obvious.

Solving Afghanistan with Nukes? What? I'll say again, Tenth Doctor style - WHAT?

China agreeing to not getting Hong Kong or Taiwan back because the Soviets have Afghanistan? WHAT?

The whole EU thing... no, didn't really see any logic to it.

Now, I don't mean to be too critical to the guy, because any interest in AH should be rewarded and not shunned, but I really think he should do a bit of research, especially about China, and try again. There are perhaps ways the Cold War could continue until the present - a staggering-on Soviet Union without its buffer states somehow surviving is one that comes to mind, but even that depends on a 'somehow surviving' factor. Ah well. In short, then: there's a few holes in it, yes.
