Russia-Israel Relationship: In the Perspective of the Syrian Civil War

Yıl 2020, Sayı: 7, 90 - 104, 21.06.2021

Öz

The purpose of this article is to examine the dynamics of the Russian-Israeli relations since the beginning of the Syrian civil war in 2015. Moscow and Tel Aviv have deep historical ties in the political, military, economic and cultural spheres. Russia's important role in international developments, especially after Russia's intervention in the Syrian civil war in 2015 has forced Israel to expand relations with Russia due to threats from proxy forces of Iran and Hezbollah in southern Syria (Golan Heights). In this article, we seek to analyze the relations between Russia and Israel in the Syrian civil war and its consequences to the other countries within the context of the current geopolitical changes. Realpolitik-based national interests are key to explain the current level of diplomatic and security relations. Regarding the Syrian civil war, the relations between Russia and Israel warmed. The prospect of Russian policy in Syria deserves further attention for the security interests of Israel. The method in this paper is descriptive-analytical.
