Abstract

Importance. The research examines the current state of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the context of the policy of resolving relations in the Middle East through the efforts of the new BRICS member countries: Egypt, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. The purpose of the study is to identify the main features of the political significance of the countries under study in the Palestinian- Israeli conflict.
Materials and Methods. The methodological basis of the work are the principles of objectivity and historicism, considering modern processes and phenomena in development and in mutual and temporal connection. To obtain more complete information, methods of source analysis, retrospective, synchronous, and comparative methods are used.
Results and Discussion. The steps taken by the countries under study in resolving the Palestinian- Israeli conflict are highlighted. The differences in approaches to solving the Middle East problems, the attitude to the new round of escalation, and the vision of the conflict by the ruling circles of Egypt, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates are clearly demonstrated. The main political groups of countries in the region are identified, and the methods of their influence on the opposing sides and interests in the region are revealed.
Conclusion. The importance and special significance of the countries under study in the context of both the resolution of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and the regulation of relations throughout the Middle East are highlighted. Iran’s current actions are directly aimed at repressing Israel’s policies. As the main opponent of the Jewish state, the Islamic Republic sees itself as a defender of the Muslim world, manifesting its policies through harsh rhetoric, the use of proxy groups and direct armed action. In fact, Israel and Iran are now on the verge of a full-fledged armed conflict. At the same time, for Egypt, the current state of conflict is extremely unfavorable due to migration and economic problems in the country
