Drawing on a combination of primary sources, academic literature, and qualitative analysis, this study seeks to elucidate Russia's evolving role in Latin America and its strategic objectives in the region. By employing a neorealist framework, the research aims to provide insights into the motivations behind Russia's engagement in Latin America, including its efforts to counter hegemonic influences, establish strategic partnerships, and expand its sphere of influence. This thesis aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the interplay between great power politics, regional dynamics, and foreign policy decision-making in Russia.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
