Assuming that the Soviet Union does not fall and the cold war continues up until the present day, with both superpowers seeking to avoid confrontation and adventures that would annoy the other and with a Soviet economy that muddles along, neither collapsing nor excelling - do people have any ideas for what regimes would seek to align themselves with the Soviets? Any? None?

Personally, I don't see the Soviet bloc growing at all if the cold war continued. Indeed, depending on how you looked at it, it could shrink as China's prestige rose among the Communist states through the 90s and 00s.

Though perhaps Venezuela and Bolivia might be seen as "Soviet aligned"?
