SUEZ AND SYRIAN CRISES OF 1956-1957 IN SOVIET HISTORIOGRAPHY
The analysis of the USSR’s attitude to the Suez and Syrian Crises described in Soviet historiography is analysed. The new vision is presented, as well as some disagreement among the soviet histriographers on the problem discussed. It is showed that, inspite some subjectivity, Soviet historiography higlited those events rather comprehensively and in detail. On the basis of the historiographical material and historical sources scrutinized the conclusion is drawn that on the whole the politics of the USSR was equitable to the interests of the Arabian countries.
