Paper explores the evolution of Russia's view on security in the Gulf. Neoclassical realism is used to present domestic variables that have influenced changes in Russia's foreign policy towards the region. Among them, the presidential factor, society/state relations and ideological factor. The study concludes that Russia's attention to the region was also linked to deterioration of the country's relations with the West. A stronger role in the region has allowed Moscow to be bolder in offering its view of the region's security structure. Although Russia's vision of security in the region has undergone changes, there is a clear continuity and reliance on some fundamental principles, among them inclusiveness and phased problem-solving. Despite this, to date the concept proposed by Russia has not become a significant for the region, although some of the proposals look relevant and applicable, providing opportunities for a future niche role for Russia in regional security.
