Abstract
The
article analyses Russia’s particular actions aimed to alter the strategic balance in the Black
Sea region in her favor. The 2008 war with Georgia and the increasing Russian
presence in Abhazia, South Ossetia, Armenia, and Transnistria, in addition to
the geopolitical quake(upheaval) that followed the Crimea annexation and the
conflicts in Donbas supports our view. In assessing the military balance, a
thorough comparison is made between the
Russian Black Sea Fleet and that of Turkey, that shows the latter’s
superiority. The military balance is further tilted in Western favor, if one
adds the naval forces of the other Black Sea countries, that are NATO members.
This conclusion leads the author to stress the hypothesis of a Western/NATO plus USA domination of the
region. Militarization, however, is self-destrutive, as it leads to higher
security risks. In conclusion, several positive measures are proposed in order
to minimize those security risks in the Black Sea region and to ease the tensions
between the West and Russia.
