In Ankara, they thought about closing the Black Sea straits for Russian ships

241

Turkey may block the Bosphorus and Dardanelles as one of the options for responding to the aggravation of the situation in Syrian Idlib, this possibility is being considered. In addition, Ankara may delay the deployment of the Russian S-400 air defense system. This is written by the Turkish media.

According to recent Turkish publications, Ankara is considering the option of closing the straits for Russian warships. Such a right is given to her by the Montreux Convention of 1936. According to Art. 20 and 21, if Turkey considers itself "at risk of imminent military danger", it may decide to close the straits.



The second response to the complication of the situation in Idlib could be the delay by the Turkish side of the deployment of the Russian anti-aircraft system S-400, scheduled for April this year.

The Russian State Duma on this occasion expressed the hope that Turkey would not go to extreme measures and would not block the straits for Russian ships.

I think that Turkey now needs to refrain from aggressive plans, from various military actions and military rhetoric regarding our state or any other state (...). It is possible that there will be some kind of barrage in the Bosphorus, but it will not reach extreme measures

- said the deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Defense, Yuri Shvytkin.

Earlier, Ankara accused Russia of striking Turkish soldiers, which led to the death of 33 military.

          Read carefully articles 20 and 21.
          This right is given to her by the Montreux Convention of 1936. According to Art. 20 and 21 if Turkey considers itself "in imminent military danger"

          Immediate danger of attack on the territory of Turkey. And not on her troops located in the territory of another country, moreover, engaged in supporting terrorists (recognized by the UN Security Council as current). At the same time, Turkey refuses to withdraw its troops voluntarily (it was asked) and prevents it from fighting terrorists. If this is an attack on Turkey, then this is a complete AUT.

            ... if Turkey considers itself to be "in imminent military danger"

            A broad interpretation, a lot of which may include, because there is a threat, not an attack directly
            Formally, in general, Turkey must decide for itself whether there is a threat or not.

              What nafig broad interpretation !? Turkey under the threat of an immediate military THREAT. TURKEY, KARL, TURKEY AND NOT ITS ARMY, WHICH IS LOCATED BETWEEN OTHER OTHER THAN THE TERRITORY OF HIS COUNTRY !!! Then we will calmly introduce troops into the territory of Turkey, and when they attack us, we will say "Oh, you threaten us, then a fluffy animal has come to you." Where is the logic!? WHOOOO !!!

            Well Duc the whole question WHO will decide this .. After the case of the Skripals and SP-2, absolutely anything is possible, in any interpretation of any nonsense .. The only question is how can we defend our interests, and how to support our position .. Recently we decided that in connection with the difficult situation of the 404th Russia has to pay 2.9bn and paid like nice ones .. So, will our bureaucrats have enough to press the calluses of the "partners" or again with a bow, whatever? Oh, I don’t know .. the bourgeois do not care that the Turkish troops are on foreign territory, it is important that these troops are doing exactly what the bourgeois need, and therefore support is guaranteed! The question is how much of this .. Sanctions will cost or will provide military assistance, and again what will OURS do in case of hard pressure ...

              If they do it with the wording "because of Idlib" - this is a direct declaration of war on Russia by Turkey! Article 5 of NATO does not work in this case (direct attacks on the territory of a NATO country) and NATO will say, itself, itself. And the war on two fronts, Syria and Russia, will definitely shit Turkey and Iran and the Kurds. think Erdogan, their whole economy is going to hell. Closed shipping and air communications, tourism business, their own food, they will float to whom? If even now they are asking to remove quotas for deliveries to Russia from their tomatoes !? They may be banned for technical reasons, for a maximum of 3 days.

              Personally, I subscribe to the words of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union Gromyko: "If Turkey closes our passage through the Bosphorus. We will make two more passes with two blows, but it is unlikely that the city of Istanbul will remain on the map."

                And they will not say that it is because of Idlib, and then this is not a direct declaration of war. The West may not directly fit into the conflict, but Turkey will be healthy with weapons and money.
                Kurds will not win the Turks for sure, but together with the Turks, Assad can be destroyed and they can already organize their own state in Syria. So that Wishlist need a little podzakoto. Here we are Syria and Turkey against us behind whose back the whole west and the states

To this statement, Comrade Andrei Andreyevich Gromyko (Minister of Foreign Affairs of the USSR from 1957 to 1985) said at a cocktail party in the White House to American journalists that for the passage in the Mediterranean the USSR Black Sea Fleet will need only a couple of missile volleys. As a result, in addition to the Bosphorus, there will be two more passages in the Mediterranean, but, alas, there will be no Istanbul. never raised the issue of closing the Bosphorus to Soviet warships.

                        But there is another option besides mining. You can start training exercises at the exit from the Bosphorus since the Black Sea Fleet still has nowhere to swim. Necessarily with rocket firing the closure of the water area and all that. Duration longer. And all under international law. And the fact that it will become uncomfortable for someone to swim there is their problem. At the same time, it will be possible to keep an eye on freedom of navigation, and if in Turkey there is a war, then you never know who and what can happen in the Bosphorus, a tanker there accidentally dives.

            I’ve seen enough on the map at school, but it’s like that. It is possible this way and that, delivery time. Critical will have to be through the air, which is fraught to be accompanied. With a massive, accentuated strike on our bases in Syria, we will have losses, God forbid. The issue is not in the provision itself, but in what would the initiative be seized. Work ahead of the curve. Constantly responding to provocations_ we work with the second number. We can have big problems.

              attack on the base of Russia, this is military aggression against Russia actually.
              for some reason, in these in your and similar comments, something like this:
              * Turkey blocks the straits, but Russia does not block or block it, because Turkish trade will suffer, and this is not comme il faut.
              * Turkey attacks planes, the base of the Russian Federation (actually the base in Syria, this is a piece of Syria, which is officially Russian)

              and it does it because of tararampararam, it’s afraid of NATO ....... hmm.
              Responding constantly to provocations is WHAT ?? For provocations just do not answer yet. The Turks beat the Syrians, hiding behind their bases and flags ... it is ugly, unfairly looks in my opinion, there is no justice or something ...

        Yes, only the Turks say. They are shy, they will not get into a fight. Here is a story from a close past:

        It was 1982, and the Bulgarian government adopted a program to rename the names of Bulgarian Turks, from Turkish to Bulgarian. And then they kicked out half a million to Turkey ...

        So, in 1984, they went wild in Ankara, began to scare us, cried at the UN, and wherever .... they put the Turkish army on alert .... and received the mobilized Bulgarian army at 24 hours at their border. Then they immediately pulled their tail and went to the barracks as if nothing had happened.

        And with you they won’t climb at all - it can be very painful there, even up to the emergence of the southern Constantinople military district. There, the Crimea will be completely behind you .. laughing

          The whole USSR with its Armed Forces and the Navy was behind Gromyko. Today the Russian Federation is not even a distant reminder of the USSR, but quite the opposite both in terms of the Armed Forces and the Navy, the economy, and the political situation in the world (that is, at least without the Warsaw Pact countries). No, the "loud" words of Gromyko are history, today (and even earlier) scarecrows must be supported not only by the amount of weapons in the country, but also by the economy (and whether the country will be able to continue and for how long). And this is not and is not observed on the horizon of the Russian Federation.

          Of course, Turkey is not Georgia, it will not do here for three days. But Erdogan is not Mishiko - does not go to war with a nuclear power. I think it will not reach chewing ties in Ankara.

We will get another war with the Turks, of course we will defeat with great blood. After all, as usual in the Black Sea there will be a support group for the Turks from the west.

    I would understand the situation if the SAA declares war, the jihad of Turkey, and for Erdogad it would be a matter of honor to defend the homeland.
    But when they enter a foreign country, on far-fetched pretexts, in order to seize territories, establish their influence and will, despite the fact that there is already a strong player who himself decided to eat a local pie, this means that the Turks do not recognize the strength and power of Russia they don’t care what the Russians have tasks there, their Wishlist is important to them and they will get what they want.

    According to Art. 20 and 21, if Turkey considers itself "under the threat of imminent military danger", then it can decide to close the straits.

    Did Turkey read the text of the military doctrine of the Russian Federation? In that part, if someone suddenly dares to prevent Russia from possessing sovereignty, statehood, and other attributes of a free country, can the issue of whether the straits belong to anyone be resolved in a very simple and cardinal way - the formation of a new Byzantine state and the restoration of Constantinople? belay
    Simple such "bitter" Turkish guys ... Here, just recently, one "filly" tried to show its zeal and arrogance. They pretended that the cinch burst, and the fleet is still in the American registries.

    This right is given to her by the Montreux Convention of 1936. According to Art. 20 and 21, if Turkey considers itself "under the threat of imminent military danger", then it can decide to close the straits.

    Turkey alone cannot close. She must apply to the UN Security Council
    with evidence of threats. UN Security Council - approves if 2/3 of the votes are "For".
    Any country of the permanent members of the UN Security Council (there are five of them - Russia, China, USA, England, France) may block the decision. So says the Montreux Convection of 1936.

An air attack was organized on our military, despite the warning, our forces were again attacked. During these air attacks, even ambulances were under attack. During the air attack around our military, there were no groups of anti-Assad forces. After the treacherous attack, immediately our aviation, UAVs and ground forces destroyed 200 targets of the Assad regime. As a result, destroyed 5 helicopters, 23 tanks, 10 BMPs, 23 artillery units of various calibers, 5 trucks with ammunition, 1 Pantsir-S1, 1 BUK-M1, headquarters and several warehouses with weapons and provisions and 309 regime soldiers.

    Turkey may block the Bosphorus and Dardanelles as one of the options for responding to the aggravation of the situation in Syrian Idlib, this possibility is being considered. In addition, Ankara may delay the deployment of the Russian S-400 air defense system. This is written by the Turkish media.

    Now an interesting picture is looming. Turkey crushes Syria under itself, and if you remember that Iraq was once a part of the Ottoman Empire, then the neighbors can begin to get nervous looking at this power takeover. After all, they also have Kurds that prevent the Turks from living.

    Curiously, in the late 70s, Turkey stated that it was considering closing the passage through the Bosphorus to the Mediterranean for warships of the Soviet Union.

    To this statement, Comrade Gromyko Andrei Andreevich (USSR Foreign Minister from 1957 to 1985) told American journalists at a cocktail party at the White House that for a passage to the Mediterranean, the USSR Black Sea Fleet would need only a couple of volleys of missiles. As a result of this, in addition to the Bosphorus, two more passages will appear in the Mediterranean, but, alas, there will be no Istanbul. After these words, Turkey never again raised the issue of closing the Bosphorus to the warships of the USSR.

      Moreover, it would be very strange to hear from Gromyko, the wrong person was, did not suffer from pathos, and was, by the way, one of the initiators of the signing of the Treaty on the Prevention of Nuclear War (1973) and the 1975 Helsinki Act, and indeed words did not rush, and even so.
      This story appeared on the Internet in large quantities in 2015, and where it came from is not clear.
      Maybe you know the link to the source of this story?

          I served in the 80s
          They took very seriously and without hatred
          My opponent, Turkey and Greece, heard at every second conversation a political leader, and no one considered the war with them a trifling matter, as you can read now in the comments

      Crimea was illegally acquired by Ukraine, the transfer agreement was not ratified.

    Don’t say such nonsense again, the USSR simply gave Crimea to the Ukrainian SSR, it was within the framework of one state!!!!!!!!

    And A. Gromyko also said that, well, we’ll make another strait for ourselves, like the Bosporus. Turks in a word.

    It would be nice for the unknown author of this article to provide links to several Turkish sources. And, preferably, quite serious ones, and not at the level of “yellow” newspapers for marriage dating.

    Where is the link to the source about “Thinking in Ankara”? Rehashes of discussions on this topic from our media.
