Abstract
The Black Sea constitutes a unique link between Asia and Europe and has a very important role in world trade as BSEC Countries generate 1/5 of the world trade. With a strategic importance to the West, and to Europe in particular, is bound to increase substantially in the years to come. Given the region’s geostrategic position as a natural link between Europe and Asia, and between Central Asia and the Middle East, it constitutes a vital trade link as well as an important area of transit.
