...potentially, or at least within the possibility range of alternate histories. Although 'open hostility' would seem highly unlikely given that the early 90s were right at the end of the Cold War and they'd need to be quick off the block to shake off habits of co-operation within NATO. Without NATO as well, we would have to assume that Prism was a KGB or Spetsnatz unit.
