This paper examines the Soviet relations towards the Middle East during the Cold War. The paper discusses the government and communist party as a force over Soviet Foreign Policy, and assesses the way in which the policy has developed. The strategic importance of the Middle East at that time is assessed, and the paper also examines the factors that drove Soviet foreign policy during the war. The two camp theory is evaluated, as is the role of Stalin. The way in which the motivations of different foreign relations differed and changed throughout the war is discussed, and the paper discusses how the death of Stalin created a shift in foreign policy focus.
