The only good non-US setting IMO is a Far Harbor sized DLC in a dense urban part of the USSR. That would contrast the typical US centric Fallout games rather than shirk them. Maybe it could reveal what sparked the first missle launch, and who did it.
Why USSR? The war was between China and the US. They could also just go wild and run a story from the POV of the Euro-Middle Eastern War
The USSR has a lot of landmarks recognizable to an international audience like Saint Basil's, Red Square, or the Kremlin if they went with Moscow. The USSR and China were allies so presumably Russia had some role in the war that hasn't been covered much yet.
Also the USSR isn't around anymore China is. So Bethesda might be worried about them doing something like invading Taiwan that might drastically impact the perception of the release.
I thought that was revealed with the crashed space station in the nuka-cola dlc? Essentially the aliens attacked, everyone thought it was each other, missiles fired.
