THE FUTURE OF SECURITY AND COOPERATION IN THE BLACK SEA AREA FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SOLVING DISPUTES BETWEEN RIPARIANS
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2009, Vol 31, Issue 2
Abstract
During its existence, up to now, the Black Sea area was not the host of some naval sounding conflicts. The most famous confrontation was between 1853 and 1856, known as the Crimea War, when the belligerents were the Russian Empire on the one hand, and the alliance between England, France, Sardinia, Turkey, on the other hand, the stake being the Crimean Peninsula and the stopping of the Russian expansion tendencies. The naval confrontations during the period of the two World Wars happened in the context of the land actions and were not characterized by vast naval actions, able to influence significantly land actions. The previous periods of the 19th century were marked by the domination within the Black Sea of the some states’ navies, ones that were great continental powers (Russia,Turkey and,during the Middle Ages and Ancient History, the Byzantine Empire or Greece), and that used sea for transport, the problem of domination within the maritime area being out of question. In other words, the disputes within the Black Sea were tightly bound to the land space. At present, the situation has not been changed too much. The whole activity inside the Black Sea area is tightly bound to the troubles and problems from the land.
