Cold War opponent: Abbr (4)

I believe the answer is:

ussr

(Other definitions for ussr that I've seen before include "Former Soviet Union" , "Former association of communist republics" , "Former union of socialist republics" , "Former soviet states" , "Former federation of Russial and other states" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
