Answer: The economic weakness in Soviet Union are:-

- One of the problems was the difficulty of managing a centrally-planned and managed economy.

- It did not cope well with the complexity of a growing, diversifying economy. As a result, high economic growth rates in the early postwar period flattened and declined, practically to zero before the Union disintegrated.

- Economically, the Soviet system simply did not generate sufficient wealth to sustain its political, social and economic ideals as well as provide the needs of its people.

- One factor is that the Soviet economy never recovered from the collectivization of agriculture. As a result, agriculture did not provide a surplus to help finance industrialization.
