Abstract

[Despite the new Iranian-Russian entente in the Middle East, Iran is still dependent on security support from Russia against a perceived threat of regime change from the USA. Despite the inherent limits of an asymmetrical partnership between a world power and a regional one, the Iranian political elite must be given their due for transforming the old Russian enemy into a partner. Moreover, regarding nuclear development and military build-up, the relationship between the two countries is decisive for the future of the Middle East. This article will shed light on Iranian historical perspective(s) toward Russia and on how the Iranian political elite has perceived Russia since the Islamic Revolution.]
