This IS how the way it is. There is the Ultranationalist Party, which is a party that wants to rebuild the former Soviet Union. There is Inner Circle, who are a terrorist cell and a different form of the Ultranationalists, under Makarov, and not the Russian Government. Makarov didn't have control over the entire Russian Military. The enemy forces you in India, are Inner Circle, not Russian Armed Forces. Makarov was a terrorist, who the Russian Government (under the Ultranationalists) didn't want anymore.
