초록보기

Turkey and Russia are the dominant powers in the Black Sea. They maintain a delicate balance of competition and cooperation as each seeks to contain the other but also to avoid

triggering a war.

Turkey’s cautious approach towards Russia has led it to prioritise regional stability over alignment with EU and NATO policies, straining relations with the West.

As Europe faces shifting US policies and the challenge of containing a post-war Russia, renewed cooperation with Turkey is essential. The Black Sea could be the first step.

NATO should prioritise mini-partnerships with Ankara in the Black Sea, using Turkey’s preference for regional cooperation with Romania and Bulgaria over high-profile engagements with non-coastal allies.

The EU should foster collaboration in areas of mutual interest—such as Black Sea security, Caucasus stability and defence-industrial cooperation—to improve its relations with Turkey.

A pragmatic reset in Turkey-EU relations could enhance each side’s ability to contain Russia, a shared goal, and include Turkey in the post-Ukraine war European security architecture.
