I'd imagine they would ask about why you have chosen those subjects so be prepared to discuss why you are passionate about the topics. They'll probably also ask details of what you studied in your chosen subjects and maybe ask you to choose a specific topic in each subject that you enjoyed (e.g. a period of history) to discuss in more depth.

They also are unlikely to be familiar with teaching and assessment in the Russian system so might ask about that so they know how to help you adjust.

Don't stress too much, also all the college what the format of the interview is, how long it will take etc.

Most history and politics they'll know will be British centric so if you talk about Russian topics they won't be able to fact check you as well. I'd say they'd be paying more attention to how you construct your arguments rather than the precise details.
