[환경] Changing Tides in the Black Sea Region: Conference Report

러시아ㆍ유라시아 일반 국외연구자료 연구보고서 - FPRI 발간일 : 2023-06-29 등록일 : 2023-08-05 원문링크

Welcome to Chain Reaction, coming to you from Tbilisi, Georgia, where we just wrapped up a two-day conference on security in the Black Sea Region. The Black Sea Region looms increasingly large as the locus of great power, military, political, and economic competition. Russia’s chosen the region as a focal point of its challenge to the Western security order, as its 2008 invasion of Georgia and its 2014 and 2022 invasions of Ukraine made clear. Geopolitically, the region is where the West, Russia, and the wider Middle East come into contact. As countries like Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia seek EU membership, Russia looks to destabilize them. Turkey aims to retain its good standing with NATO, preserve its ties with Russia, and assert its interests in the Syrian Civil War. The region also holds considerable importance as an economic and energy transit zone, with the West, Russia, and China watching transportation and energy infrastructure projects there.

Finally, Black Sea states struggle to build political, economic, and social resilience in the face of Russian attempts to destabilize them and subvert their sovereignty. The goal of this conference is to advance understanding among regional and Western scholars and policymakers on the challenges and opportunities in the Black Sea Region. To discuss the conference and its major themes, I am joined by a team of six people who represent the diverse talent FPRI brings to the table.
