Over the past 30 years, relations between Russia and Oman have evolved from cool contacts during the Cold War to partnership in our days. Today, Oman, seeking to diversify its economy, shows interest in cooperation with Russia. In turn, Moscow sees Muscat as a promising partner in the Persian Gulf region. Ivan Reshetnyak, Project manager at the Center, analyzes the prospects for the development of Russian-Omani cooperation.
to the Middle East
The year 2023 was characterized by a sharp deterioration of the situation in the Middle East after the escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Russia attempted to take a neutral position, generally consistent with or coinciding with the reaction of the international community. At the same time, deep contradictions between the policies of Russia and the collective West remain and may worsen if the situation in the zone of the Israeli-Palestinian confrontation becomes more violent. Russia’s principled position on this long-standing conflict is well known, and it consists in resolving the issue on the basis of the two-state solution and preventing the discrimination of sovereign rights of the Arab people of Palestine.
The Middle Eastern leaders do not consider India either as a potential counterweight to Washington or as a replacement for it; China is better suited for this role. Middle Eastern leaders are ready to develop their economic ties with India, but in spite of its size, India will not take the place of the United States, Russia, China or the EU, Ruslan Mamedov writes.
