Ensuring that the U.S. military was larger than the Soviet military
It depends on what "in" refers to. If the question is geographic, i.e. Are China and the Soviet Union part of the region called the Middle East, then No. China is part of the Far East or East Asia, which is a very different region. The Soviet Union stretched from Eastern Europe to Siberia, but did not include any part of the Middle East. If the question is about involvement, i.e. Are China and the Soviet Union involved politically with the Middle East, then, Yes. China needs an incredible amount of energy to power its economy and much of that energy comes overland from the Middle East, from countries such as Iran and Iraq. Therefore, China has a strongly developed Middle East policy. The Soviet Union had strong military involvement in the Middle East using the Arab-Israeli Conflict as a way of having proxy wars with the United States. As a result, much of Arab military craft in the 1960s-1980s was of Soviet design.
How the Soviet's react to the blockade
Russia's military is called the USSR, which stands for Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, more widely known as the Soviet Union. Russia's fighting force for their military is known as the Soviet Army.
There was no military action during the Cold War. As opposed to a 'hot war', meaning a shooting war, the conflict between the West and the Soviet Bloc was restricted to a war of economics, sanctions, boycotts, and similar political struggles.
