Summary/Abstract: SINCE THE EARLY 1990’S, THE BLACK SEA REGION HAS WITNESSED FUNDAMENTAL GEOPOLITICAL CHANGES AND SIGNIFICANT TRANSFORMATIONS IN ITS REGIONAL CONTEXT AND DYNAMICS. TODAY, THE BLACK SEA IS THE PLACE OF RUSSIA AND NATO'S CONSTANT CONSOLIDATION OF MILITARY CAPABILITIES AMID UNRESOLVED CONFLICTS BETWEEN STATES IN THE REGION. THESE DEVELOPMENTS INCREASE INSECURITY AND, AT THE SAME TIME, THE MILITARY BUILD-UP IN THE REGION RAISES THE RISK OF SERIOUS MILITARY INCIDENTS THAT CAN ESCALATE INTO A LARGESCALE MILITARY CONFRONTATION. THIS PAPER AIMS TO PROVIDE AN APPLIED UNDERSTANDING OF THE RISKS OF CONFLICT IN THE BLACK SEA REGION.
