Ultranationalists Party

Ultranationalists flagThe Ultranationalists are a political and military group in Russia who wish to return Russia to a Communist state, as it once was during the days of the U.S.S.R. They believe that the Russian Federation does not have the best interests of the Russian people at heart, siding with Western interests both philosophically and economically, which they perceive to be destroying or weakening Russia. Now that General Zakhaev has been murdered in the end of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, it has opened a door for Vladimir Makarov --a formal associate of Zakhaev-- to take the leadership.
