CONVENŢIA DE LA MONTREUX DIN 1936. IMPLICAŢII DE SECURITATE REGIONALĂ LA MAREA NEAGRĂ
THE MONTREUX CONVENTION IN 1936. SECURITY IMPLICATIONS AT THE BLACK SEA REGION

Summary/Abstract: The Black See region is nowadays seen as the main route of terrorism, drugs, human trafficking, and weapons of mass destruction to Europe and Western World. As part of this new challenge, the physical location of American troops in Romania may contribute to identifying a new approach in dealing with the asymmetrical threats. The location of troops at the Black Sea coast, NATO’s and EU’s Eastern border, has many political, military, strategic, and to a certain extend, economic connotations. The authors believe that in the new context of the American military presence in Romania and Bulgaria, the security interests in the Black Sea area should prevail in front of the economic struggle for energy, and political confrontations, by revising the Montreux Convention’s provisions.
