Eastern Europeam views of the USSR are complicated and mixed.

To say that "most eastern Europeans dislike Russia/USSR" is counterfactual and downright confusing.

Real convenient how Eastern Europe is complicated and mixed but you have no problem saying Central Asia or the Caucasus support the USSR.
