Со второй половины 90-х годов одним из приоритетов внешней политики США постоянно был раскол и расхождение в ирано-российских отношениях, для чего США не жалели сил. Поскольку синергия держав двух стран и их антиоднополярная политика всегда представляли серьезную угрозу гегемонии США на глобальном уровне, к началу сирийского кризиса в конце 2010 г., последовавшего за «арабской весной», интересы и цели США прямо противоречили политическим интересам и интересам безопасности Ирана и России. Цели Вашингтона в сирийском кризисе включали в себя: падение сирийского правительства, свержение Башара Асада и попытку создать прозападное правительство для устранения единственного союзника России после распада Советского Союза, а также чтобы предотвратить региональное проникновение Ирана, особенно групп, поддерживаемых Ираном, таких как «Хезболла». Для достижения этих целей Вашингтон воспользовался преимуществами своих стран-союзников в регионе, таких как Саудовская Аравия, Катар и Турция, в качестве линии фронта. Стратегия США в Сирии не только усугубила кризис, но и создала ситуацию, в которой Иран и Россия достигли самого высокого уровня сотрудничества в военной сфере и сфере безопасности за последние три десятилетия. И именно этот инцидент США посчитали серьезной угрозой своим национальным интересам и политике. Хотя Иран и Россия преследовали конкретные, а иногда и противоречивые интересы, в конечном счеге, сосредоточившись на общих целях и угрозах, возникших в результате сирийского кризиса, они смогли эффективно сотрудничать и сделать новый шаг в построении стратегического единства.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the US has always played the most important and influential role in the Iran-Russia relations. From the second half of the 1990s, one of the US foreign policy priorities has constantly been on the separation and divergence in the Iran-Russia relations, for which the US spared no efforts. Since the synergy of powers between the two countries and their anti-unipolar policies have always been a serious threat to the US hegemony at a global level, by the beginning of the Syria crisis in late 2010, following the Arab Spring, the US interests and goals were directly at odds with Iran’s and Russia’s political and security interests. The goals of Washington in the Syria crisis included: the decline of the Syrian government, the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad, and an effort to establish a pro-Western government to eliminate the sole ally of Russia after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and also to prevent Iran’s regional penetration, particularly its proxy groups like Hezbollah. For achieving these goals, Washington has profited from its allied countries in the region, such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey, as a front line. The US strategy in Syria not only exacerbated the crisis but also provided a situation in which Iran and Russia achieved their highest level of military and security cooperation in the past three decades. And it was precisely the same incident that the US considered a serious threat to its national interests and policies. Although Iran and Russia have pursued specific and sometimes contradictory interests, in the end, focusing on common goals and threats – arising from the Syrian crisis – they were able to cooperate effectively and take a new step in building a strategic unity.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Иран</kwd><kwd>Россия</kwd><kwd>сирийский кризис</kwd><kwd>Соединенные Штаты Америки</kwd><kwd>Ближний Восток</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Iran</kwd><kwd>Russia</kwd><kwd>Syrian crisis</kwd><kwd>United States of America</kwd><kwd>Middle East</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Abdollahian 2020 – Abdollahian A.H.
