Abstract: Algeria is the first Arab country to sign a bilateral strategic cooperation agreement with Russia. Since the Middle East upheavals,Algeria has played a unique role in Libya,Syria and other issues,it is a force that Russia relies on in the process of strategic practice in the Middle East. Russia’s diplomatic layout to Algeria is roughly as follows: First,through regular political and diplomatic consultation mechanism between the two countries,Russia’s influence on hot issues in Libya,Syria and other regions will be enhanced,especially Russia ’s political status in the Maghreb region will be improved. Second,through the economic,trade and arms sales cooperation mechanism,steadily increase the scale of the two countries’ economic and trade and arms sales.Third,strengthen cooperation with OPEC member countries and other energy exporting countries to jointly maintain the oil price and natural gas price mechanism,so as to win the market competition with Algeria ’s own natural gas. In short,Algeria plays an important pivotal role in Russia ’s diplomatic arrangements in the Middle East and Africa,but cooperation between the two sides has also been restricted and influenced by many factors.
