Interesting - Novorossiysk was the furthest (from Ukraine) military port in the Black sea, and the ships were there because it's harder to attack them there compared to Crimea. Where else could they hide, run away to Mediterranean? :)
Or am I missing something?
Aren't russien military ships barred from crossing the Bosporus?
Maybe they can leave, but not enter. Would be kind of funny if they'd abandon the black sea like that.
It's up to Turkey. But according to international treaties they can absolutely forbid them from leaving, iirc
*unless it's to return to their home port, but then they also cannot reenter. I think that most of the non black-sea fleet got out before the war or just was not in there at all
Turkey controls it, and Turkey does whatever they find useful that day. Right now, Russia sold out "allied" Armenia to Azerbaijan, and Turkey is a part of the regional muslim bloc. I have no idea of their agreements, but it's not like Turkey is anything close to being reliable partner to western countries
Turkey isn't a reliable partner for anyone.
