description	Although it is thought that the cold war between The USA and USSR ended in 1990s with the collapse of communism, history repeats itself and we witness that it continues in 2000s where it left. The analysts from the USA knew that Russia would regain its strength, object to the one pole hegemony system of the USA and make a big effort to be a leading power in international system rather than a leaded one. In accordance with the USA predictions, Russia gathered strength by performing economic and political improvement between 1990-2000. Since beginning of 2000’s, Russia argued against US operation towards Afghanistan and Iraq and Russia said no to the USA centered one pole world system and US progression with its attitude towards revolutions in region after 2003, and prospective NATO/EU membership of Georgia and Ukraine in 2008 and later. In a Ukraine-centered and Cyprus-related crisis in November 2013, Russia came to realize that The West desires to surround itself and restrict its authority.
