Abstract:

 This study locates recognitive dynamics and status-seeking considerations as the overarching impetus in Russian decision-making in the interventions in Georgia 2008, Syria 2015, and Ukraine 2014, 2022. Problematizing status-seeking via military means in Russian foreign policy, the article aims to propose a roadmap to detail the necessary focal points of inquiry on the respective cases. The proposed roadmap indicates that understanding the Russian interventions in question necessitates focusing on the interplay between Russian great power identity and the Russian perception of repeated misrecognition of this identity by its interlocutor, the US.

 Bu çalışma, Rusyanın Gürcistana 2008, Suriyeye 2015 ve Ukraynaya 2014, 2022 düzenlediği müdahalelerindeki karar alma süreçlerinin baskın iştiyakı olarak tanınma dinamikleri ve statü hesaplamalarını tayin etmektedir. Rus dış politikasında askeri araçlarla statü arayışını sorunsallaştıran bu makale, bahsekonu vakalara ilişkin araştırmaların odaklanması gereken noktaları detaylandıran bir çerçeve ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Önerilen çerçeve, Rusyanın büyük güç kimliği ile bu kimliğin muhatabı ABD tarafından defalarca reddedildiğine dair Rus algısının arasındaki etkileşime odaklanmanın söz konusu Rus müdahalelerini anlamanın ön şartı olduğuna işaret etmektedir.
