History[]
Hydra[]
Following the conclusion of World War II and dissolution of the Soviet Union, Soviet Armed Forces was disbanded and reformed into the Russian Armed Forces. Several Hydra operatives, led by Vasily Karpov worked undercover inside the Russian military, using an old facility in Siberia as the hub for the Winter Soldier Program.[1]
Weapons Traffic[]
Serving within Russian Armed Forces, Georgi Luchkov established illegal weapons business in Russia, using Solohob as a front of his business. Eventually, Luchkov's criminal activity drew the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D., as Black Widow was sent to Russia to investigate Luchkov and his weapon traffic.[2]

Russian-American Tension[]
On November 4, 2026, Vossoyedineniye Square in Moscow was subjected to a terrorist attack, orchestrated supposedly by the Americans Against Russia. The Kremlin announced the mobilization of the Russian military forces, as the situation started to escalate to an all-out war with the United States of America.[4] The machinations of the Skrull Resistance nearly led to nuclear war between the two countries. However, the plan was exposed by Nick Fury and tensions eased.[5]
