Editing Sino-Soviet split (section)

===Socialist relations repaired===
In 1954, Soviet first secretary [[Nikita Khrushchev]] repaired relations between the USSR and the PRC with trade agreements, a formal acknowledgement of Stalin's economic unfairness to the PRC, fifteen industrial-development projects, and exchanges of technicians (c. 10,000) and political advisors (c. 1,500), whilst Chinese labourers were sent to fill shortages of manual workers in [[Siberia]]. Despite this, Mao and Khrushchev disliked each other, both personally and ideologically.<ref name="Luthi40">{{cite book |last1=Luthi |first1=Lorenz |title=The Sino-Soviet Split: Cold War in the Communist World |date=2008 |publisher=Princeton University Press |location=Princeton, NJ |isbn=978-0691135908 |pages=39–40 |chapter=Historical Background, 1921–1955}}</ref> However, by 1955, consequent to Khrushchev's having repaired Soviet relations with Mao and the Chinese, 60% of the PRC's exports went to the USSR, by way of the [[five-year plans of China]] begun in 1953.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Shabad |first1=Theodore |title=Communist China's 5 Year Plan |journal=Far Eastern Survey |date=December 1955 |volume=24 |issue=12 |pages=189–191 |jstor=3023788 |doi=10.2307/3023788}}</ref>
