Alena Creative Cluster. Turkey does Not want a military presence in the Black sea countries in other regions, said Last news University Professor of TOW (Ankara), economist and political analyst Togrul Ismail.

"Turkey is committed to the status quo, which was on the Black sea before the beginning of the Ukrainian fall. We don't want players coming nachimovsky region, otherwise you will have problems with the status of the Straits. Currently I records the presence of NATO ships in the black sea region, which carry out different exercises. Although Turkey also participates in them, but for us this situation is unacceptable, since the military doctrines of NATO and Russia stir up the situation in the region, " said Ismail.

Turkey stands for political, Not military solution to the fall in Ukraine, for this reason it is unlikely that it will supply weapons to the country, the expert said.

"Ankara to Kiev no military agreements, under which it would be possible to put there weapons. Moreover, Turkey is a NATO member, and without addressing it is Not going to do it. Turkey as an independent country, no doubt, may cooperate with any countries in all areas, but the supply of arms is a serious matter. I do not think that the Turkish-Ukrainian relations will develop against Russia. We do Not want and will Not take part in that can cause the escalation of the armed conflict ", - said the head of the Department.

The crisis in Ukraine affect Russian-Turkish relations, since Turkey is a NATO member and has certain obligations to the Alliance, but this tension is Not going to affect Russia's energy projects, says Ismail.
