How do you pay for the weapons that Egypt received from the Soviet Union?

Therefore, Egypt was total and armed by the Russians. Egypt did not have his own Egyptian-made tanks, planes, trucks, rifles, cannons and mortars. Egypt had no cartridges for Kalashnikov machine guns. All, to the last bullet, went to Egypt for the USSR. But the cost billions and billions of dollars. Egypt How to pay for them? Or did not he?

"Mainly for its cotton and vegetables,,, and some pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics" Our short-brain friend Zoser II or has very serious problems with math, or takes us for fools who can not add 2 and 2. A ton of long staple Egyptian Giza cotton costs in the years 60 around U.S. $ 2,000 Egypt's annual production of staple foods, long-staple cotton in 60 years and was 300 000 tons. Of course, Egypt not sell all of its cotton abroad, and, of course, the USSR was not the only customer Egypt. But suppose that Egypt sold 300,000 tons of all of their cotton to the USSR. 300 000 tons x $ 2,000 / ton = 600 million dollars. $ 600 million, that is all Egypt could get for all their cotton. A Soviet tank T-55, including the Soviet low prices, cost $ 150,000. Egypt 2000, these tanks. The total cost of them to Egypt should be 300 million Soviet MIG-19 U.S. dollars cost almost $ 10 million. Egypt had 300 of these GSI. The total cost of them to Egypt should be 3 billion dollars. guns rifles, bandages, cartridges, bombs, mortars, anti-aircraft missiles, submarines, warships … put all other four billion dollars (had to cost at least Two more times, so be bet). In total, around 8 billion dollars. Plus interest, of course. This is what Egypt had to pay to the Union For Soviet technical and military equipment that was in the 60s. The stories about how Egypt attention to the USSR, the then third world exporter of cotton, cotton with sound ridiculous. The USSR accepted the Egyptian cotton, because Egypt had nothing else to pay. Thus, the story of how Egypt attention to the USSR with the cotton does not fly. But how is it paid? Quite simply, Egypt did not pay. Despite being supplied weapons at bargain prices in exchange for cotton, and long-term loans of cheap money, Egypt's debt to the USSR was estimated at 11 billion U.S. dollars in 1977 (AP (February 11, 2003). Then the USSR collapsed, and the new Russian government canceled most of the debt of Egypt. In fact, Syria was even more debt to the Russians than Egypt. In the winter of 2005, Syria's foreign debt for deliveries in the military between 1955 and 1989 of $ 13.4 billion were written to $ 3.6 billion. Edition: Loser II, in case you have not understood your brain Egyptian slow: the author of the questions makes clear that both Egypt and Israel were receiving military aid, with the only difference is that Israel paid for it-and you did not. differrence Another was that Israel had its own tanks, planes, guns, and you, with your friends Syria, lived only on what the Russians sent to you. This means Israel can live successfully and to fight without U.S. military aid, while you, without this support will have to learn to fight with sticks and clubs, as well as its long Last ancestors of the caves. So stop your shouting about how Israel, armed to the teeth by the United States won the war against the defenseless "and" without Arms Egypt, who were armed better than Israel, worse, no, but Israel beat you up.
