Who actually defeated Soviet Union?

[Bharat Muslim]

I am neither asserting nor denying anything. This post is more of a question than a statement.

I have believed that Soviet Union was defeated by USA and Afghanistan. Pakistan merely played a supporting role. But this guy @SecularNationalist said something else.

But then I have also learned that no country’s media can be trusted. I don’t know the ground realities. Who knows @SecularNationalist may actually be correct! Many Americans are racist. Maybe they denied credit to ISI. Someone who is really in the know - someone who has the authentic info about all this affair - should throw light.

So the question is: Who actually defeated Soviet Union?

Accept it dude you haven,t achieved something big like defeating USSR at your gates while having no nuclear deterrence.

ISI was involved for ten years before CIA pitched in..in that sense ISI has fought the longest running proxy war since the history of modern warfare.

Also it is somewhat Indian miscalculation that Indians have kept Pakistani at restraint in occupied Kashmir..the reality is that if ISI want to break hell lose...it surely can..but two key element are lacking in the case of Kashmir...which is necessary to fight long term proxy war.

1. The presence of large number of indigenous guerrilla force willing to engage in long term conflict unlike the Pushtoon of Afghanistan...It means Pakistan will have to sneak in foreign fighters which de-legitimatizes the cause.
2. International rally behind Pakistan cause..unlike the moral and material support we enjoyed in Afghan-Soviet fiasco.

Don't know why some people think Pakistan single-handily destroyed the Soviet Union. This is just delusion on their part. Soviet Union was a sick country when it decided to invade Afghanistan in 1979. And if weren't for US & Saudi bankrolling the whole enterprise, where would Pakistan be?
