الملخص EN

This article examines Russia's Regional Security Actorness and argued that it is based on two pillars: the idea of Russia’s national identity and its multiple narratives that confirmed Russia’s ethnic, religious and cultural uniqueness, and Russia’s reliance on a variety of military, economic and symbolic tools to achieve Balkans regional security idea.

We will clarify this argument as follow.

Firstly, we take a look at these narratives, then we analyze Russia’s response to regional security issues in the Balkans since 2000, and how these narratives have been used to establish Russia’s regional presence in the Balkans.
