Not just nationalism but also our naivete to how states act, regardless of whether they are 'socialist' or not. So many of the USSR's decisions prioritized the immediate interests/survival of the state at the expense of revolutions abroad and eventually those betrayals left it without the external support to survive the West's onslaught.
