Abstract

The main purpose of the article is to analyze historical sources that consider the peculiarities of Israel – Syria relations in the period 1948-1967.

The authors investigate the events that contributed to the insurrection in Syria in 1949 and its consequences for the relations of this country with Israel. In total for the period from 1949-1953. In total, four military insurrections took place in Syria between 1949 and 1953, and 21 governments were replaced. Under these conditions, peace talks were held between Syria and Israel. The researchers focus on economic assistance from the USSR to Arab countries.

As a result, the authors come to conclusion that the truce regime between Israel and Syria lasted until the Six-Day War of 1967, but even earlier, at the turn of 1954-1955, it had already reached the point of no return.
