Gorbachev resigned and Ukraine declared independence

On August 24, 1991 Mikhail Gorbachev resigned as General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

On the same day, same month, same year Ukraine broke from the Soviet Union and declared independence.

Had the West given the loans that Gorbachev requested would the world be a different place today?
