روابط متوازن با ایران و عربستان، بهعنوان دو شریک جامع استراتژیک، برای توسعه چین از اهمیت فزایندهای برخوردار است. در این پژوهش تلاش شده است تا رویکرد عملگرایانه چین در تعامل متوازن و پایدار با ایران و عربستان از منظر مصونسازی استراتژیک مورد بررسی قرارگیرد. این مقاله درصدد پاسخ به این پرسش است که عوامل و محرکههای تداوم استراتژی مصونسازی چین نسبت به روابط متوازن با ایران و عربستان چه میباشد؟ یافتههای تحقیق حاکی از آن است که جمهوری خلق چین از طریق دیپلماسی مشارکتی، انعطاف استراتژیک و سیاست دوستی با همه، و اجتناب از چالش با امریکا به تضمین منافع استراتژیک خود در روابط با ایران و عربستان پرداخته است. میانجیگری در توافقنامه دیپلماتیک ایران-عربستان در آوریل 2023، نیز شاهدی بر تمایل بیجینگ به تداوم رویکرد توازنبخش و مصونساز نسبت به دو قدرت منطقهای میباشد. روششناسی این پژوهش عبارت است از اینکه روش تحقیق کیفی و مبتنی بر روش توصیفی-تحلیلی است و روش گردآوری دادهها مبتنی بر منابع کتابخانهای است.
