What happens if the Black Sea becomes a Turkish lake just as the Baltic becomes a NATO lake?
Turkey and Ukraine are co-operating on UxV technology.
Ukraine is mastering surface and submersible vessels as well as long range missiles.
Ukraine employed Turkish Bayraktar UAVs early on.
Ukraine and Turkey are jointly developing their own CCA to be fielded in months.

What would that mean for the Caucasus (Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia) of the Black Sea were neutral commercially?
Add in the potential loss of the Islamic Iranian anchor on the Caspian and trade with the Stans becomes more feasible.

Students were raped after being forced to live in complex alongside 125 refugees to 'aid integration': Terrified Dutch youngsters 'were subjected to years of sex assaults and violence'
Terrified Dutch students made to live side-by-side with 125 refugees to aid their 'integration' were subjected to years of sexual assault and violence, an investigation has reported.
Stek Oost, located in the Watergraafsmeer district of Amsterdam, was sold to the Netherlands as the dream solution to the housing and refugee crisis.
A total of 125 students and 125 refugees would live alongside each other, and were even encouraged to 'buddy up' so the migrants would adapt to life in the Netherlands more quickly.

Well, it is hard to say if it Putin or Trump that is the driving force but Trumps pronouncements seem to be having a salutory effect on Europe's defence efforts.

Trump’s Greenland threats push Europe toward divorcing America
With NATO thrown into question, some officials see the “coalition of the willing” as the basis for a new alliance without the U.S.
LONDON — As with many failing relationships, it’s been a story of arguments, unspoken tensions and trying to keep up appearances in public since Donald Trump reentered the White House a year ago.
But for many European governments, including America’s longest-standing and most loyal allies, Trump’s threat of punitive tariffs against anyone who tries to stop him taking Greenland was the final straw. Divorce, they believe, is now inevitable.
In private, dismayed European officials describe Trump’s rush to annex the sovereign Danish territory as “crazy” and “mad,” asking if he is caught up in his “warrior mode” after his Venezuela adventure — and saying he deserves Europe’s toughest retaliation for what many see as a clear and unprovoked “attack” against allies on the other side of the Atlantic.
