* ArtisticLicenseLaw: In our universe at least, the European Union doesn't have a "President". The closest thing would be the President of the European Commission but even that office's powers little resemble that of an actual head of state. Even for ceremonial purposes, the role of "leader of the EU" is usually split between the President of the European Commission and the President of the European Council.

* NoNameGiven: He is never given a name. Of course, given this series, it's entirely possible that he is ''is'' in fact this universe's David Hasselhoff.

-->''"Come Comrade General! A new world order awaits!"''

Originally an officer in charge of overseeing technology development, Cherdenko brought his superior, General Krukov to see his experimental time machine as the Allies advanced on Moscow. Using the machine, he went back in time and assassinated Albert Einstein. Returning to their own time, he found that he was now Premier of the Soviet Union, much to Krukov's annoyance. With his new position secure, he proceeded to launch an invasion of the Allied nations.

* BeardOfEvil: Sports a beard and is the leader of one of the two main enemies.
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Has a tendency to betray those around him, over fear they will discover he became Premier due to a time paradox, even the player character.

* TimeyWimeyBall: He went back in time to 1927 and killed Einstein, which raises some questions as Yuri, the antagonist of the first two games, was defeated using Einstein's technology.
* SmugSnake: He really relishes on the fact that the timeline he created made him Premier of the Soviet Union.

-->''"To you, comrade. The people want to meet their new premier. The future is yours, commander. The future is yours."''

Born to a poor family whose 10 children all willingly enlisted in the Soviet armed forces, Dasha was singled out as the most talented of the lot. Her talent was so great that Premier Cherdenko himself took notice of her. Now serves as an intelligence officer, Dasha was assigned to the main Soviet commander. She assisted him throughout the campaign, providing updates and pointing out objectives as they came up.

* CustomUniformOfSexy: Similar to Eva's, only [[HellBentForLeather black leather]].
* {{Hypocrite}}: Calls out [=FutureTech=] for killing Soviet civilians with cryo legionnaires even though the Soviets did the same thing with the Sickle.

'''Role:''' Chief of the General Staff of the Soviet Armed Forces ]

-->''"Hello, capitalist dogs! I am General Krukov, the one who will bring your defeat today. Brace yourselves for the might of the Red Navy. We will pound your little island until you weep for mercy!"''

When Cherdenko used the time machine to change history, he took his superior General Krukov along. After the change, Cherdenko was now the Premier, meaning Krukov now answered to him. This irked him, but there was nothing he could do about it, and so went along as the Premier began invading the Allied nations. Personality wise, he is brash and arrogant, but still a capable officer and a formidable opponent for anyone who comes up against him.

* ChestOfMedals: He has a modest Soviet Officer uniform with but a few medals when first seen in the prime universe. By the time he has adjusted to the AlternateUniverse where the Soviets are winning the war, he's got tons, on both sides of his chest no less. It's implied that he awarded most of these to himself.
* {{Expy}}: Of Vladimir from the previous game. Both are arrogant glory hounds who belittle the player while taking the credit for any success whenever you and he work together during a campaign, despite the player doing most of the work. Also, both are [[spoiler:framed and set up as traitors by Yuri and Cherdenko respectively.]] The biggest difference is that Vladimir was an incompetent GeneralFailure while Krukov is genuinely skilled, if overconfident.
* FakeUltimateHero: Again, similar to General Vladimir; giving the player a lot of crap while taking credit for any of your successes. When he works with the Allies he arrives late and with limited reinforcements, stating that you should have done all the work yourself by the time he arrived.
* FrameUp: [[spoiler:He is set up by Cherdenko to take the fall for an assassination attempt he himself orchestrated.]]
* GlorySeeker: He belittles the player while taking the credit for any of the player's sucesses and has a ChestOfMedals.

* OhCrap: [[spoiler: When the Shogun Executioner comes to his headquarters.]] "W-What sort of..." [[spoiler: Subverted in that he immediately flees saying he's needed elsewhere.]]

->'''Played by:''' Creator/GinaCarano

'''Rank:''' Unknown\\
'''Role:''' Commando, sniper ]

-->''"Natasha here, you have a list for me?"''

Natasha is an elite Soviet black ops agent. Very little information is available about her past. The woman herself is a seasoned professional (and, in the words of some, a cold-blooded killer). She deals only with the most severe affairs of the Union.

While Soviet Union agencies continuously dismiss and/or incarcerate journalists who question Natasha's military conduct (due to reports of shocking cruelty she shows on the battlefield) or the validity of official sources on her life and career, the rumours persist.

* AffablyEvil: Affable with the commander and her rival, Tanya, but still a cold-blooded sniper.
* BareYourMidriff: Her outfit is a sports bra and shorts, making her bare midriff visible.
* ChainmailBikini: Her outfit is described as a kevlar sports bra and bottom.
* ColdSniper: She fulfils the cold bloodedness side of the ColdSniper, yet is affable with the commander and her rival, Tanya.
%%* DarkActionGirl
* DeathFromAbove: Can call down an airstrike on selected targets.
* DistaffCounterpart: To Boris in ''Yuri's Revenge''. Where Boris uses an assault rifle that can kill any ground targets pretty quickly, Natasha uses a sniper rifle that can [[OneHitPolykill hit through infantry]] and [[SnipingTheCockpit kill the crew of vehicles]]. Both can call airstrikes on structures.
* HeroUnit: Her unit represents the PlayerCharacter on the battlefield.
* ImprobableAimingSkills: Can somehow snipe the crew of tanks despite their being no openings for her bullets.
* LaserSight: Averted. Natash does have a laser sight attached to her rifle, but it's used to target buildings and vehicles for air strikes. When she targets infantry or snipes pilots, she doesn't use the sight.
* OlympicSwimmer: Is faster in the water than Tanya.
* OneHitPolykill: Her shots can kill multiple infantry if they're close together.
* SnipingTheCockpit: Able to shoot the the crew inside a vehicle, leaving it unmanned, at which point any infantry unit can hop in.

'''Rank:''' Commander-General\\
'''Role:''' Soviet Commander ]

-->''"So they sent vermin like you to try and stop me? What is this, a joke?"''

Moskvin is notorious throughout the Soviet military as a sadistic, unpredictable commander. It is said that his mood swings are as unpredictable as his tactics. He changes from cool to hysterical rage without warning.

However, regardless of his mood, his strategies are bound to be aggressive. This unstable commander regards the Allies and the Japanese as fools and crazy people but holds special valors for all of his loyal brothers.

* AxCrazy: Having been part of the Soviet's experimental Tesla Trooper brigade after all.
* BloodKnight: When the [[spoiler: Statue of Liberty]] was finally taken by the Red Army, Moskvin expressed that he never felt so much joy and had the best fun of his life. He encouraged the player to return to Mother Russia where he would be given a great welcome. Moskvin however decided to stay in New York claiming he wanted to have more... fun.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: While he is somewhat AxCrazy and mentally unstable, he does show genuine respect to fellow officers and knows to hold back personal grudges to do what needs to be done.
* PsychoElectro: He has an unhealthy fascinations of terror drones and [[LightningGun Tesla weapons]]. He's a former Tesla Trooper, though, so this is not much of a surprise.
* PsychoForHire: Has shades of this. He's mentally unstable and feels joy in the war, but is good at what he does and knows what's needed to be done.

->'''Played by:''' Dimitri Diatchenko

'''Rank:''' Commander - General\\
'''Role:''' Soviet Armour Divisions Commander ]

-->''"Well, look at what the wind blew in. Sit tight. My tanks will deal with you shortly."''

He is one of the few conscripts that manage to survive long enough to be promoted. A casual and informal commander, he has proven that he is a competent commander. He is quite popular among his underlings.

Later he became tank commander and now he leads the Union's mightiest armor divisions. He takes a particular liking to the heavy armor units of the Soviet Union, as a former tank commander. His men tend to appreciate his lack of formality, though his superiors sometimes don't.

* AFatherToHisMen: Reportedly has the best relationship with those under his command out of the three commanders.
* CavalryOfficer: A variation; he's the leader of the armor divisions and prefers using ''the tanks themselves'' to crush the enemy on the ground.
* OldSoldier: Downplayed; he doesn't look that old, but is said that he managed to survive long enough to be promoted to the position he's in.
%%* LargeHam: Easily one of ''the'' hammiest co-commanders.
* GeniusDitz: Supposedly, he's dumb enough to let himself get promoted to a high-ranking position and take a large amount of blame for the Soviet's loss during Uprising. In Vanilla Red Alert 3, Oleg is one of the toughest and most tactful AI commanders in the game. Amazingly, he's supposedly just a tank general, but he uses just about everything to fair effect.
%%* MilkingTheGiantCow: Especially in the Allies' campaign.
* TankGoodness: Leads Soviet armor divisions. He prefers massing tanks to crush the enemy on the ground while placing less emphasis on air and naval units. Allied commanders unfortunate enough to encounter him reported being attacked by waves of tanks.
* YouAreInCommandNow: He seemingly took Krukov's position in ''Uprising''.

-->''"Who knows what nightmares we have created?!"''

Considered one of the most intelligent minds of the Soviet Union, Zelinsky created the USSR's Temporal Displacement Device in a year-long secret project. He was code named Z and was assistant to Dr. Nikola Tesla. It was Tesla who gave Dr. Zelinsky the secret of time travel, and was warned by Tesla about the consequences of time stream alterations.

Being forewarned, he protested when his superior Colonel Cherdenko wanted to use the time machine, warning him that they have no idea what the effects of changing the time line would be. He was forced to accompany Cherdenko and General Krukov on a trip into the past to eliminate Albert Einstein, and he tried in vain to stop Cherdenko from assassinating the famed scientist. Upon their return to the altered present, they discovered that Zelinsky's fears were well founded, as the previously unknown Empire of the Rising Sun had just launched a massive invasion on the Soviet Union.

* TheAtoner: Spends much of the game in all campaigns trying to undo his mistake.
* AwfulTruth: What he knows about how the Soviets changed time.
* BreakTheScientist: Seeing the laws of time being defied right in front of him definitely left him very broken.
* DefectorFromCommieLand: He defects to the Allies in the Allied and Empire campaigns.

She stood as a symbol for propaganda to encourage Russians and also to boost their morale. She is recognized as the White Sparrow. Throughout her career for the Soviet Union, Vera accumulated a number of victories and was made an example to follow. Although she is cold, Vera can show her lovely side to seduce and then shatter. Commander Belova is implied to have some friendship with Natasha, holding in high esteem the Soviet commando.

A hotheaded and ruthless figure, Tatsu often clashes with his more stoic and conservative father, believing that victory against the Empire's enemies will not come from intimidating them into submission, but on the battlefield. Tatsu also places greater faith in the Empire's technology than his father does, and believes that destiny is not a blueprint to follow, but rather something that can be made through bold actions and force of will. Still, despite their disputes, Tatsu remains very loyal and dedicated to his father, and defers to his judgment in times of crisis.

->'''Played by:''' Lisa Tamashiro

'''Rank:''' Unknown\\
'''Role:''' Psychic Commando ]

-->''"Thought is dangerous; lack of thought, deadly!"''

The product of a highly secret training program, Yuriko is a psychic warrior capable of tossing her enemies' largest war machines around like toys.

* Dangerously Short Skirt: as befits the already mentioned uniform her skirt end well above what would be useful for a soldier.

%%* LegacyCharacter

* EtTuBrute: In the final mission, "Ruin and Reunion", [[spoiler:when the latter engages her in a duel.]]

* HumanPopsicle: [[spoiler: After the Allies defeat him, he and Krukov are literally put on ice.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: [[spoiler: Arranges for an attempt to be made on his own life, then sets Krukov up to take the fall for it.]]

* ChestOfMedals: He has a modest Soviet Officer uniform with one of two medals when we first see him in the prime universe. By the time he has adjusted to the AlternateUniverse where the Soviets are winning the war, he's got tons, on both sides of his chest no less. It's implied that he awarded most of these to himself.

* ColdSniper[=/=]FriendlySniper: Natasha Volkova runs both sides of this trope. She fulfils the cold bloodedness side of the ColdSniper, yet is affable with the commander and her rival, Tanya.

* ReluctantMadScientist: Zelinsky is a sensible man of science whose quest of discovery is unaccountably misused by his EvilBoss for destructive purposes, but one has to wonder if he ever though that time travel wouldn't ever be used for destructive purposes.

* WhatTheHellHero: Well, more like, "What the Hell, WorthyOpponent?", but one ''Uprising'' mission has him fight against you where [=FutureTech=] hopes to gain the Decimator. Wait too long and he will freak out that the superweapon will annihilate you, robbing him of a proper dual.

* ArrogantKungFuGuy: He's really over confident of the fact that he pilots an HumongousMecha, and his temper could be described as "[[HotBlooded volcanic]]."

* CreepyChild: Her quotes make mental health appear more than questionable.

* TragicVillain[=/=]TragicMonster: It's hard to not feel bad for her... After suffering all the tragedies in her youth [[spoiler:and ending up having to kill her own alleged sister who turns against her after being saved]], she is still the same lonely, unloved girl. By the end of her ''Uprising'' campaign, [[spoiler:she is on-the-run from the authorities and all alone in the world, left wondering what to do with herself...]]

* NoExceptYes: When the president calls demanding to know if the Allies are in fact negotiating a peace treaty with the Russians, Bingham's response is,
-->'''Bingham:''' It's more of a ceasefire.\\
'''Ackerman:''' So it ''is'' true!

[[folder:Naomi Shirada]]

This gifted no-nonsense, fleet commander is the heiress to a famous military family's legacy and is widely known for her impatience for those who get in her way of her ambitions. It is said she has no permanent home, preferring life aboard the ships in the armadas at her disposal. In fact, she was born on a Shogun-class Battleship. Shirada is notoriously ruthless and uncontrollably violent, and even more so in battle. However, she is a very successful commander indeed, and a great asset to the Imperial Navy. The Shirada Shipworks, the center of Imperial naval activity in Tokyo Harbor, was named after her.

* CompositeCharacter: Yuriko's backstory is very similar to [[Manga/ElfenLied Lucy's]], has the powers and [[AxCrazy sanity]] that channels [[Manga/{{Akira}} Tetsuo]] and has a similar sounding name to [[CommandAndConquerRedAlert Yuri]], another psychic gone rogue (although Yuriko is definitely [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds not outright evil]]).
