The Middle East is the epicentre of world geopolitics because it is at the heart of the stakes and the desires of the world's powers. The United States, which has long considered itself the world's policeman, must deal with the unbridled ambitions of the new Russia, determined to catch up in global governance. Since the end of the cold war, this is the first time that these two states have fought on the same political, diplomatic and strategic ground that the Syrian conflict offered. Beyond the lines of friction, Americans and Russians have been forced to cooperate against the dangerous expansionism of the Islamic state under the banner of the fight against terrorism.
Author Keywords: Syrian conflict, terrorism, foreign policy, national interest, Islamic state.

Abstract
The Middle East is the epicentre of world geopolitics because it is at the heart of the stakes and the desires of the world's powers. The United States, which has long considered itself the world's policeman, must deal with the unbridled ambitions of the new Russia, determined to catch up in global governance. Since the end of the cold war, this is the first time that these two states have fought on the same political, diplomatic and strategic ground that the Syrian conflict offered. Beyond the lines of friction, Americans and Russians have been forced to cooperate against the dangerous expansionism of the Islamic state under the banner of the fight against terrorism.
Author Keywords: Syrian conflict, terrorism, foreign policy, national interest, Islamic state.
Abstract: (french)
Le Moyen Orient est l’épicentre de la géopolitique mondiale car il est placé au cœur des enjeux et des convoitises des puissances du monde. Les Etats-Unis se considérant depuis longtemps comme le gendarme du monde, doit faire aux ambitions effrénées de la nouvelle Russie, déterminée à rattraper son retard dans la gouvernance mondiale. Depuis la fin de la guerre froide, c’est la première fois que ces deux Etats se battent sur le même terrain politique, diplomatique et stratégique qu’a offert le conflit syrien. Au-delà des lignes de friction, américains et russes ont été contraints de coopérer contre l’expansionnisme dangereux de l’Etat islamique sous la bannière de la lutte antiterroriste.
Author Keywords: conflit syrien, terrorisme, politique étrangère, intérêt national, Etat islamique.
