الأبعاد السياسية و الدبلوماسية في العلاقات الاقتصادية بين المملكة العربية السعودية و كوريا الجنوبية (1962-1981)‎م

Abstract EN

The Korean civil war broke out on June 25, 1950, then, after the truce declaration in 1953, Korean Peninsula was divided to the South as a democratic state supported by the United States of America and the North as a socialist state supported by the Soviet Union and People's Republic of China.

South Korea had to follow the principle of the Cold War regime in establishing diplomatic relations on the globe, thus it established diplomatic ties with pro-American Arab states suchas Saudi Arabia and avoided strengthening its diplomatic ties with Arab states which were leaning toward the communist line such as Syria and Algeria.

But South Korea didn't give up developing relations with other Arab countries through economic contact with those countries excluding political cooperation, waiting for a appropriate time, the post-Cold War era or end of ideological conflict.
