Galia Golan argues that the conflict served as a critical test case for understanding Moscow's strategic objectives, its relationships with Arab client states, and its broader rivalry with the United States in the region. Drawing on a wealth of diplomatic and political evidence, the study details how the Kremlin navigated the competing pressures of superpower détente and its commitments to Egypt and Syria, revealing the inherent tensions within Soviet Middle East policy. Written in a measured, scholarly tone, the work illustrates how the crisis ultimately exposed the limits of Soviet influence and reshaped the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East for years to come. This authoritative account remains an essential reference for students and scholars of Cold War diplomacy, Soviet foreign policy, and the modern history of the Middle East.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839391871195,"sku":"2026770002140-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/a749010d-8311-4ad0-aab4-102e0ffbb3f1.png?v=1780561486","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770002140-secondhand-yom-kippur-and-after-the-soviet-union-and-the-middle-east-crisis","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
