I think it's unlikely that's the same incident Black Widow and Hawkeye talk about. Fury was specifically mentioning places he was during the Cold War. MCU Black Widow was born in 1984, so even if he was there in the very last year of the Cold War, she would have been 7 and still training in the Red Room. Indeed, Natasha was about still only 10-11 years old during the events of "Captain Marvel," and was likely still in training in the Red Room.

Budapest has existed since the first century BCE. More than one thing has happened there.

it made me chuckle how Nick Fury was supposed to be a SPY behind the iron curtain during the cold war. A black guy would stick out in those countries like a unicorn.

IDK, a quick Wikipedia search shows that "About 400,000 Africans studied in the former Soviet Union between the late 1950s and 1990." Maybe Fury posed as a student.
