Reply to comment by monkeygoneape in Türkiye, Sweden, Finland to discuss NATO bids in Bucharest by Zhukov-74
If you're focus is on Russia then yes it's quite important but still not as important as holding the Black Sea.
Plus, Turkey is the entry point to Africa and Asia

Like I said, wasn't downplaying turkey's geographical location, but with Russia being the aggressor at the moment, that does make them the bigger threat at the moment so being able to be in striking distance of one of their most important urban centres shouldn't be downplayed either, and doesn't the Suez kind of negate the black sea if we're talking shipping specifically?
