Abstract

Bu araştırmanın temel amacı, Rusya'nın Afrika'ya yönelik dış politikasının tarihsel bağlamını ve gelecekteki olasılıklarını araştırarak kapsamlı bir analiz sunmaktır. Araştırma, Rusya'nın Afrika'daki katılımının kökenlerini, canlanmasına yol açan nedenleri, Batılı ulusların tutumunu ve Rusya-Afrika ilişkilerinin mevcut durumunu inceleyecektir. Ayrıca, Rusya'nın Afrika'daki katılımının karşılaştığı kısıtlamaları analiz etmek ve karşılıklı çıkar konularında daha fazla işbirliği ve işbirliği olanaklarını belirlemek de dahil olmak üzere ileriye dönük işbirliği olanaklarını değerlendirecektir. Bu araştırma, yirmi birinci yüzyılın dinamik dünya siyaseti ve uluslararası ilişkileri anlamamıza katkı sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to give a thorough analysis of Russian foreign policy toward Africa by investigating the historical context and future possibilities of this engagement. It will examine the origins of Russian participation in Africa, the causes that have led to its revival, the attitude of Western nations, and the current state of Russian-African relations. The research will also analyze the constraints of Russian participation in Africa, as well as prospects for further cooperation and collaboration on mutually beneficial subjects. The research will help us comprehend world politics and international relations in the twenty-first century.
