Russia may be secretly hoping that a full blown war does take place in that region. If that happens most of ME oil producers will be devastated, oil prices will shoot up, and Russia can pick up the slack on supply at very favourable prices, while at the same time increasing its bargaining power against a weakened West (from oil prices shock)...
