Only because the Soviets killed a few hundred million of them. Thus "on our side" meant that they shared a common enemy.

Today if might be the Russians on our side, after the Chinese invaded Sibera for "living room", and resources.

According to the film, the USSR nuked China and killed about half of the PRC population in the process. That seemed to upset the Chinese.
