К этому времени идеология экспорта исламской революции стала более сдержанной и осторожной, что позволило Ирану включиться в решение сложных проблем в конфликтном регионе Южного Кавказа: в частности, в начале вооруженного противостояния между Арменией и Азербайджаном из-за Нагорного Карабаха в Тегеране предложили посреднические услуги по его мирному разрешению. В региональной стратегии Ирана, реализуемой в рамках государственной идеологии «исламского» пути развития, были задействованы разные методы и возможности. Эти вопросы вызывают повышенный интерес среди отечественных исследователей, а их изучение является актуальным, имея в виду сохраняющиеся угрозы интересам национальной безопасности России в южнокавказском направлении.</p><p>Новизна исследования определяется тем, что в нем проведен комплексный анализ основных направлений региональной политики Ирана на Южном Кавказе, раскрыты ее особенности и характерные черты, а также формы и методы реализации. Особое внимание в работе уделено вопросам, связанным с влиянием внутренних и внешних факторов на сложные процессы формирования и развития отношений Ирана с молодыми государствами Южного Кавказа. В ходе исследования установлено, в ходе проведения антизападного и в определенной степени – независимого от России внешнеполитического курса на Южном Кавказе Иран не смог достичь заметных успехов, поскольку влияние и позиции России и США в регионе оставались сильными. В целом, в работе сделан вывод, что надеждам по вхождению Ирана в круг ведущих держав, влияющих на международную обстановку на Южном Кавказе, не суждено было сбыться: для достижения этой цели, прежде всего, следовало строго придерживаться прагматичной политики, свободной от идеологических наслоений, что подтвердилось в ходе дальнейшего развития событий на Южном Кавказе.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>In the context of the new geopolitical realities that emerged in the post-Soviet space after 1991, the policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) in the direction of the South Caucasus became noticeably more active. During this period, the export ideology of the Islamic revolution became more restrained and cautious, which allowed Iran to take part in solving complex problems in the South Caucasus: in particular, at the very beginning of the armed conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh, Tehran offered their services in its peaceful permission. Iran’s regional strategy strictly fit into the framework of the state ideology of the «Islamic» path of development, therefore, in the course of its implementation, various tactical methods and opportunities were involved. These issues continue to arouse increased interest among domestic researchers, and their study is relevant, bearing in mind the remaining threats to Russia’s national security interests in the South Caucasus direction.</p><p>The novelty of the study is determined by the fact that it contains a comprehensive analysis of the main directions of Iran’s regional policy in the South Caucasus, reveals its features and characteristics, as well as forms and methods of implementation. Particular attention is paid to issues related to the influence of internal and external factors on the complex processes of formation and development of Iran’s relations with the young states of the South Caucasus. The study found that in the course of conducting an anti-Western and, to a certain extent, independent of Russia foreign policy in the South Caucasus, Iran could not achieve noticeable success, since the influence and positions of Russia and the United States in the region remained strong. In general, the paper concludes that the hopes of Iran joining the circle of leading powers influencing the international situation in the South Caucasus were not destined to come true: in order to achieve this goal, first of all, it was necessary to strictly adhere to a pragmatic policy free from ideological layers, which was confirmed in the course of further development of events in the South Caucasus.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Иран</kwd><kwd>Южный Кавказ</kwd><kwd>региональная политика</kwd><kwd>постсоветский период</kwd><kwd>Азербайджан</kwd><kwd>Армения</kwd><kwd>Грузия</kwd><kwd>взаимоотношения</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Iran</kwd><kwd>South Caucasus</kwd><kwd>regional policy</kwd><kwd>postSoviet period</kwd><kwd>Azerbaijan</kwd><kwd>Armenia</kwd><kwd>Georgia</kwd><kwd>relationships</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">1	Исследование выполнено при финансовой поддержке РФФИ в рамках научного проекта № 20-59-56010 от 3.03. 2021 г.</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The study was carried out with the financial support of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research within the framework of the scientific project No. 20-59-56010 dated 03.03.2021</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Calabrese J.
