If it's in that cutscene, then I currently have no way of seeing it. :P

The Grey Men, yes, were mostly Ofnir and Grabacr. However, I did say "mostly," not "only." The other part, at least what was confirmed, was that the head of Grunder was a member as well. So just because Grunder was in North Osea didn't make much difference; Grunder was the Grey Men's front, their identity. Grunder is Batman and the Grey Men are Bruce Wayne.

Why I say "Belka" is because I always thought that post-Belkan War, the Grey Men (and whatever party they were affiliated with - may be the Rald Party, as you said) gained power and took control of Belka. Because they wanted to bring Belka back to its glory. Part of that was building up the military (see Mission 20, "Ancient Walls," where Pops mentioned that Belka's military fighter jets that just showed up on radar must have been built in secret) and they couldn't have done that on a national level without taking control of the country in the first place. But another part of bringing back the glory was restoring the economy; it was a thriving economy before the cession of the land we now call Ustio, so selling these weapons (like Z.O.E. in AHL and the missiles in AC04) would have helped a ton.
