Abstract

Russian Federation, under the leadership of Vladimir Putin reoriented its foreign policy, and it has been conducting assertive foreign policy since the Munich Security Conference in 2007. Arab Spring became the opportunity for Russian Federation to implement this assertive foreign policy. Although Russian Federation supported democratic demands and transition to democracy in the first phase of the Arab Spring, later on, it has reoriented its foreign policy towards the Arab Spring in the second phase, which means supporting the counter-revolution. This study explains the reason why Russia supported counter-revolutionary movements in the post-Arab Spring period.
