Russian and east European sets were quite popular in Italy: here's what we have here

Unitra B/W and color sets from Poland, from the mid 70s to the early 80s

Geloso branded "EI" sets (B/W portables and color) from Yugoslavia

VideoPocket 5" B/W portables from USSR, sold from the mid 70s to the mid 90s, actually a wonderful little piece of engineering.

Telecolor 80s sets from Romania.

Tesla B/W sets from Czechoslowakia in the 60s and early 70s.

Also many Italian set makers used russian KEA-IT capacitors in the Early-mid 80s, these were fairly reliable, much better than the Daewoo or Nichicon capacitors they used in the late 80s
