中东地区紧邻高加索和中亚地区，与俄安全、经济和地缘政治利益密切相关，是俄实现强国目标的重要发力点之一。2015年俄成功介入叙利亚局势后，俄中东外交愈加自信、成熟。俄利用中东国家之间的复杂关系，主动塑造公正、务实的“协调者”形象，与土耳其、伊朗、以色列、埃及、沙特等地区主要国家保持建设性对话关系。鉴于俄能为中东各国提供的政治和经济资源有限，以及在中东复杂关系中长期保持脆弱平衡的难度较大，俄中东政策仍具有一定局限性。
The Middle East，adjacent to the Caucasus and Central Asia，is closely related to Russia’s security，economic and geopolitical interests，and is one of the important launching points for Russia to achieve its goal of becoming a strong country. Since Russia’s successful intervention in Syria in 2015，Russia’s Middle East diplomacy has become increasingly confident and mature. Russia has taken advantage of the complex relations among Middle Eastern countries to actively portray itself as a fair and pragmatic “facilitator” and maintain constructive dialogue with Turkey，Iran，Israel，Egypt，Saudi Arabia and other major regional countries. Given the limited political and economic resources that Russia can provide to the Middle East countries and the difficulty in maintaining a fragile balance in the complex relations in the Middle East in the long term，there are still limitations in Russia’s Middle East policy.
