Summary/Abstract: The second half of the 20th Century was characterised by the spirit of a strong foreign policy orientation of the Czechoslovakia towards the Arab countries. In the era of the Slovak independence, such orientation of the foreign policy is completely absent. However, we can consider the events of the Arab Spring, which opened up the possibility of greater participation in the events in this part of the world, to be a turning point. In our article we would like to analyse the development of modern Slovak-Arab relations, but in a broader historical context.
