Evgeny Primakov - The Middle East on stage and behind the scenes. A leather-bound gift book.

The book Confidential: "The Middle East on Stage and Behind the Scenes" by Evgeny Primakov, an outstanding Soviet and Russian Orientalist, diplomat and statesman, is an in-depth analytical study of the geopolitics of the Arab world. The author draws on his unique half-century of experience in the region as a journalist of the Pravda school, an academician and head of foreign intelligence. In a memoir-journalistic form, Primakov provides a detailed description of the key historical processes of the second half of the 20th — early 21st century, including the emergence of Arab nationalism and the consequences of the “Arab Spring.” The monograph contains a detailed analysis of the most complex Soviet‑Arab relations, as well as the intense competition between the USSR and the USA for influence in the strategic region. The text is of particular value due to the author’s personal recollections of his confidential meetings and secret negotiations with leaders of the Middle East. Primakov honestly and impartially examines both the successes of domestic diplomacy and the serious miscalculations of the Soviet leadership. The book is not a dry chronological account and offers the reader a comprehensive analysis of the hidden drivers behind the Middle East’s web of contradictions. Written in accessible and vivid language, this work makes it possible to understand the underlying reasons why the region remains one of the hottest spots on the planet today. The publication serves as an indispensable primary source for professional political scientists, international historians, and a wide range of thinking readers.
