The newly released information revealed that Russia is now the largest economy in Europe and also the world's fifth for the very first time since Soviet times
World would be very different, the USSR would be THE most productive country on earth considering it had a head start on China even with the massive destruction caused by the nazi invasion.
Also i think that the USSR foreign policy ultimately did more damage than good to the communist movement worldwide, the chinese mutual development through trade is a much better policy. But then again, without the USSR foreign policy i think the Cuban revolution would've failed.
