تحلیل ژئوپلیتیک فضاهای آشوب بر امنیت ملی ایران(مطالعه موردی آذربایجان و ارمنستان)

Geopolitical analysis of chaos spaces on Iran's national security (case study of South Caucasus)

Abstract

Deep transformations in the geopolitics of the South Caucasus after the collapse of the Soviet Union have caused extensive changes in the political structure of the region. In the meantime, Iran has expanded its political-economic cooperation with these countries due to the close historical, cultural and geographical ties. Due to its geopolitical importance and its transit route, energy resources, and the emergence of new security threats, this region has received the strategic attention of regional countries, including Iran, and trans-regional powers. Today, mastering this area has become an important measure of power. On the other hand, the atmosphere of chaos and complexity has become the basis for direct and indirect intervention of powers and has become a factor for competition between actors. In terms of security, the South Caucasus is a barrier between Iran and regional and global powers. Therefore, any threat and chaos causes a threat to Iran's national security. Due to its proximity to the South Caucasus and preventing the spread of crises and conflicts in this region to its borders, Iran pursues a region-oriented foreign policy, based on partnership strategies and without the involvement of major powers. Our goal in this research is to investigate the developments in the South Caucasus on Iran's national security and foreign policy. It seems that considering the role of regional and extra-regional powers in the developments of the South Caucasus, i.e. competition, conflict of interests, different goals, cooperation and alliance are different axes that affect Iran's national security and cause the formation of Iran's foreign policy frameworks in have become South Caucasus. The findings of the research indicate that the most important reason for the crisis in the South Caucasus is the intervention and role-playing of regional and extra-regional powers by means of financial aid, information and support of weapons of their own spectrum. This factor has caused competition, different positions, and ultimately the formation of an atmosphere of chaos in the South Caucasus.
