Abstract

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) under Khrushchev’s governance, compared with previous leaders, changed its policy on Africa and hence an extraordinary situation happened. However the peculiarities of Africa and changes in international conjuncture, transformed Moscow’s extraordinary approach to an ordinary one. Accordingly, the Soviet policy and ideology were made flexible and the USSR tried to find common grounds with Africa and use its potential. Through application of Soviet model and communism in Africa, making alliances with the Third World’s newly independent actors Kremlin aimed to have superiority against the Western world. Along the process of reaching to ultimate goals or in the case of failing to achieve primary aims; different or supplementary aims could be adopted. The common points between the Soviet Union and Africa were limited and absence of several factors regarding bilateral rapprochement resulted in adoption of new tools. Moscow gave answers to Africa’s colonial past and development oriented future. The goals of Khrushchev’s era were not completely realized. Moscow and the African states were tested in bilateral cooperation and in conformity to the framework drawn by ideological and political changes.

Özet

Hruşov yönetimindeki Sovyet Sosyalist Cumhuriyet Birliği, geçmiş liderlerle kıyasla Afrikasiyasetinde değişikliğe gitmiş ve dolayısıyla olağandışı bir durum yaşanmıştır. Kıtanın özellikleri veuluslararası konjonktürdeki değişiklikler, Moskova’nın bu olağandışı tutumunu ise olağan kılmıştır. Buna göreSovyet dış politikasında ve ideolojisinde esnekliğe gidilmiş ve Afrika ile ortak nokta bulunmaya, kıtanınpotansiyeli kullanılmaya çalışılmıştır. Kremlin, bağımsızlığını kazanan bu ülkelere komünizmin yerleşmesini,Sovyet modelinin uygulanmasını sağlayarak ve Üçüncü Dünya’nın bu aktörlerini yanına çekerek Batı’ya karşıüstünlük sağlanmayı amaçlamıştır. Öncelikli hedeflerin gerçekleşmemesi durumunda ya da hedeflere gidensüreçte farklı veya tamamlayıcı amaçlara başvurulabilmiştir. Sovyetler Birliği ve Afrika arasındaki ortaknoktalar sınırlı olmuş, yakınlaşmaya dair eksikler yeni araçları benimsetmiştir. Afrika’nın sömürge geçmişineve kalkınma odaklı geleceğine Moskova yanıt vermiştir. Fakat Hruşov döneminin hedefleri tümüylegerçekleşememiştir. Moskova ve Afrika ülkeleri işbirliğinde, ideolojik ve siyasi değişikliğin çizdiği çerçeveyeuyumda sınanmıştır.
