Abstract
The behavioral model of the great powers in crisis management is of the important issues worthy of research, as a result of the structural change of the international system and becoming complicated after the “Cold War”. In the security policy making in the post-historical world, Russia still emphasizes on two elements of historical and geopolitical mentality. For this reason, it defines geopolitical codes of the peripheral regions (nearby foreign regions), on the basis of its interests. Accordingly, in the regional and international levels, the behavioral model of this actor in crisis management in the geopolitical domain of Soviet Union of Russia is under the influence of these factors. Therefore, the main question of this article is: What kind of impact the requirements of the geopolitical vision and code of the “Soviet Union of Russia Federation” have had on the management of this actor in Ukraine crisis? The hypothesis of this article is as follows: With consideration to the importance of the geopolitical sphere of the Soviet Union of Russia to revive Russian power, as well as the prominent and vital status of Ukraine in the geopolitical vision and code of this actor, the “Russian Federation” has acted intelligently in the crisis management arena of Ukraine and has combined hard and soft means with each other. The writing method of this article is explanatory-analytical, and through using library resources; also the required data has been collected.
