    The war in Ukraine has taken its toll on Russia's navy, and has allowed Turkey to emerged as the dominant naval power in the Black Sea. So in this video, we'll explain why this region is so important and the three reasons this is great news for Erdogan.

    When Türkiye shot down the Russian plane, other NATO countries said it was Turkey's problem. Additionally, 4-5 months ago, America opened fire on NATO member Turkey's UAV on the Syrian border. I touched upon very few of the mistakes made by NATO countries against Turkey.

      Türkiye doesn't do much to have a good image among NATO members. With frequent anti-west, islamist rhetoric from Erdogan, it's easy to forget Türkiye is part of NATO.
      Türkiye doesn't always make a show of compassion for other NATO members.
      Plus, when you look at Erdogan talking to crowds like he think himself as the new sultan who's going to free the islamic world from evil West and evil zionists, you wonder why doesn't anyone shouts (but ofc we know why) : then why the fuck you're still in NATO ?

    There's always blatant Turkophobia on this channel. By not showing Turkey as a NATO member, and not even mentioning the fact that Turkey has supported Ukraine since 2014, (and was sending billions of dollars worth of arms while Germany offered to send helmets and Macron was cosying up to Putin) is done on purpose to make it seem more nefarious than it is. This was similar to the Nagorno-Karabakh situation, in which you mentioned Armenian's leaving the region after the war, but failed to mention how it was illegally annexed by Armenia and thousands of Azeris were butchered in the 90s, with several million being made refugees.
    If you honestly want to be a neutral channel, you need to get out of your tiny westoid Anglo-box and views of 10% of the world, and at least attempt to see how the other 90% of the world looks at geopolitics, because this is sloppy and basically propaganda.

      Turkey hasn’t been showing itself as a NATO member for some time, it rides the fence which strategically makes sense. Turkey supporting Ukraine in 2014 is an outgrowth of combating the threat of Russian coastal encroachment to Turkish dominance. Erdogan used the Swedish as a way to get concessions just like playing NATO and Russia against one another to benefit itself in the canal project into the Black Sea.

    Türkiye is doing very well by not letting America and other invaders into the Black Sea. In addition, when PKK terrorists launched missile attacks against Turkiye from Syria, the USA and Germany withdrew their air defense systems from Turkiye and left Turkiye in a difficult situation. Despite the PKK terrorists who have been massacring civilians in Turkey for 40 years, the USA and Europe have always taken a stance against Turkey.

And According Montreux convention, Both Russian and Ukrainian ships can't use Turkish Straits. And According Head of Ukrainian navy, They didn't ask for passage. So Ships were coming to Turkey and that was their destination. Secondly, This video should have mention, Turkey was also building 4 Corvettes for Ukrainian Navy. Billion dollar naval deal between Turkey and Ukraine was important.

The latter policy and Ukrainian attacks on Russian navy literally crippled the Russian naval capacity in the Black Sea.

Moskova was shot by NASAMs in a UK operation and the UAAVs/Naval drones were filmed being imported via Poland. The Ger government outed the UK Military being based in Odessa where they run the operation using ISRO from US P8s and Globalhawks in the Black Sea,
      The only operations Rus need the BS Navy for is PGM strikes and only a single cruise missile carrier has been sunk.
      And why is Ukraine "without a navy"? Funny how that's never brought up in NATO media. The entire UA BS Navy, including 50K sailors+officers and the FIFTH largest Fleet in Europe, defected to the Russian Federation when Crimea seceded from UA in 2015. And no they weren't forced. The UA AF bases stayed with the coup Kiev Gov and RF freely allowed them to take all Aircraft and equipment to mainland UA.

      Russia now controls almost 70% of Ukrainian coast line and has significant influence in costal region of Georgia. Russia is the second largest manufacturer of weapons and third largest manufacturer of warships in the world so they'll quickly recover the lost military resources once the war ends. not to mention they are the largest Nuclear power in the world.

      But for example if the UK or the US wants to go with higher tonnage vessels, like aircraft carriers, Turkey can't make an exemption. At the same time Turkey can't block any warships (except Russia and Ukraine) with the right tonnage.
      They can't block military vessels except for countries in war. Which this rule is used only the second time. The first one was during WWII. So, it is very rare anyway and is only for countries in war. For countries not in any war Turkey can't block military vessels with the correct tonnage.

Also beware of the graphs they show that can be misrepresenting e.g. showing only a period certain period of time (showing a 5 year period causing the graph to show an immense increase or decline, but if you'd look at a period of 10 years the graph would be less shocking) or starting at a graph at a high or low value (e.g. when talking about inflation rate they put the figures in a graph which bottom is 20% (in the bottom left corner) and top level is 30%(in the upper left corner), thus showing a huge shift while if it would be a graph starting at 0% going up to 50% and then put the figures in the graph it once again would show less spectaculair results.

    - Even during the Cold War Era, Turkey did not allow military drills in BlackSea carried out by NATO with the strategy to avoid provoking Russia. Otherwise this area would turn into something like Persian Gulf today... NATO is sometimes becoming a military organisation to protect itself against (albeit all decisions are supposed to be unanimously taken).
    - Türkiye helped Georgia with building an air base, which was immediately destroyed by Russia during its annexation of Abhasia and Ossetia.
    - There is also a pipeline between Samsun (city in BlackSea) through Ceyhan (town in Mediterrenean Sea), which is being used by Russia together with Kazakhtan and Azerbaijan oil exports. Existence of this infrastructure significantly reduces naval demand on the Boshphorus traffic.

    Minor nitpick. "Literal" and "Littoral" are very easy to distinguish when reading but sound extremely similar when spoken. You might want to use different phrasing in the future when talking about countries that share a common body of water.

    Russia gained more ports and control larger cost line. As war in Ukraine has shown, the black sea is a puddle and no navy can feel safe there. No air defense can protect anything. Advanced AD systems as patriot and s400 were destroyed by a direct hits, those, AD can not defend even itself. However, sanctions and restrictions on Russia allowed Turkey to greatly benefit from the conflict. This should have been emphasised instead.

    Turkey declared a 200-mile EEZ in the Black Sea in 1986 and subsequently defined its borders through an exchange of letters with the USSR and an agreement with Bulgaria in 1997.
    The Organisation of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC), a regional economic cooperation organisation, was established with the Istanbul Summit held on 25 June 1992 under the leadership of Turkey and its Permanent Secretariat, which was opened in 1994, is located in Istanbul.
    BSEC has 13 members, namely Albania, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Bulgaria, Armenia, Georgia, Moldova, North Macedonia, Romania, Russian Federation, Serbia, Turkey, Greece, Ukraine and Turkey.
    Turkey is searching for gas within its own borders in the Black Sea. There is no violation of the rights of Russia or other Black Sea coastal states. There is no reason for them to feel uncomfortable.
