Best Answer

The enemies of the U.S. during the Cold War were the USSR(controlled by Russia) and the Soviet satellite countries of eastern Europe (Warsaw Pact).

To a lesser extent, another was the other major communist power, the People's Republic of China. During the Cold War, China became a nuclear power and practically a superpower itself.
