IRAK SAVAŞI SONRASI GELİŞEN DÜNYA DÜZENİNDE RUSYA: EKLEKTİK BİR YAKLAŞIM

Irak Savaşı sonrası dönemde ABD tek taraflılığının arka planında Rusya, çok kutuplu bir dünya düzenini teşvik etme ve Sovyet sonrası alanda hegemonik etkisini sürdürme çabalarını artırdı. Geride bıraktığımız iki on yılda Rusya Suriye’ye ordusunu gönderdi, Afrika’da lejyoner askerler kullandı, Gürcistan’da iki adet ayrılıkçı devlet kurulmasına yardımcı oldu ve en sonunda Ukrayna’yı işgal etti. Rusya'nın dış politika yapımını etkileyen ana faktörler nelerdir? Bu makale, Rusya'nın iddialı dış politikasının, Rusya arasındaki etkileşimler ve uluslararası yapıda değişen dinamikler nedeniyle ortaya çıktığını savunmaktadır. Sovyetler Birliği’nin yıkılmasından sonra ciddi bir güç kaybına uğrayan Rusya sistem ve bölgesel seviyede güç ve etkisini geri kazanmayı hedeflemektedir. ABD'nin hegemonik gücünün azaldığı uluslararası bir bağlamda, Rusya, "yakın çevre" ve çok kutuplu dünya düzeninde hegemonik etkisini sürdürmek için iyi bir konumdadır. Bu makale, Rus dış politikasının nasıl pratiğe döküldüğünü özgün bir çerçeve ile kapsamlı bir şekilde ele alarak Rus dış politikasını açıklamaya yönelik devam eden çabalara katkıda bulunacaktır. Bu makale bir literatür taraması ile başlamaktadır. Takip eden bölümde makalede kullanılan eklektik çerçeve detaylı bir incelemeye tabii tutulmaktadır. Sonraki bölümde Rusya’nın dış politikasının oluştuğu Irak Savaşı sonrası dönemde uluslararası sistemin dinamikleri incelenmektedir. Son bölümde ise Rusya’nın bu dönemdeki dış politikasının stratejik, ekonomik ve sosyal düzlemdeki pratiği ele alınacaktır.
