The United Nations wants to protect the marine habitat from pollution and overexploitation with the marine conservation agreement. At least 60 states must have ratified the treaty by 2025.

The Turkish side is always talking about an aircraft carrier. This could have been the case if Turkey had not secured the approval of the USA by flirting with Russian-designed air defence systems.
