Özet:

 With this research, the annexation of Crimea to Russia and the effects of the Russia-Ukraine war on the maritime jurisdiction areas were investigated. For this purpose, firstly, the reasons for the tension between Russia and Ukraine were determined. Secondly, the maritime jurisdiction areas of Russia and Ukraine, which changed de facto with the annexation of Crimea, were examined. Thirdly, the possible effects of the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war on the maritime jurisdiction areas are emphasized. With the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the length of Russias coastline decreased to 421 km in the Black Sea and approximately 400 km in the Sea of Azov. After the annexation of Crimea, both the coastline and the EEZ Exclusive Economic Zone of Russia have practically tripled. In addition, Russias EEZ border in the west of the Black Sea merged with the Romanian EEZ border. Turkey- Ukraine EEZ border has also turned into a de facto Turkey-Russia EEZ border. With the annexation of Crimea, the control of the Kerch Strait, which was previously under the control of Russia in the east and Ukraine in the west, passed completely to Russia. When the ongoing war between the two countries is examined, it is understood that Russia attacked the coastal cities where the people of Russian origin live intensely and took these settlements under its control. This shows that Russia aims to further increase its coast to the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov and its maritime jurisdiction areas.

 Bu araştırmayla, Kırımın Rusyaya ilhakı ve Rusya-Ukrayna savaşının deniz yeki alanları üzerine etkileri araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla, ilk olarak Kırımın ilhakı sürecine giden yolda Rusya ile Ukrayna arasındaki gerilimin nedenleri belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. İkinci olarak ise Kırımın ilhakının sonucu olarak Rusya ve Ukrayna deniz yetki alanlarında fiilen de facto meydana gelen değişiklikler incelenmiştir. Üçüncü olarak da halen devam etmekte olan Rusya-Ukrayna savaşının deniz yetki alanlarına olası etkileri üzerinde durulmuştur. Sovyetler Birliğinin dağılmasıyla Rusyanın kıyı şeridi uzunluğu Karadenizde 421 kmye, Azak Denizinde yaklaşık 400 kmye düşmüştür. Kırımın ilhakından sonra ise Rusyanın hem kıyı şeridi hem de MEB Münhasır Ekonomik Bölgesi fiili olarak yaklaşık üç katına çıkmıştır. Bunun yanı sıra Rusyanın Karadenizin batısındaki MEB sınırı Romanya MEB sınırına dayanmıştır. Türkiye-Ukrayna MEB sınırı da fiilen Türkiye-Rusya MEB sınırına dönüşmüştür. Kırımın ilhakıyla daha önce doğusu Rusyanın, batısı Ukraynanın kontrolünde olan Kerç Boğazının kontrolü tamamen Rusyaya geçmiştir. İki ülke arasında halen sürmekte olan savaş irdelendiğinde, Rusyanın ağırlıklı olarak Rus kökenli halkın yoğun olarak yaşadığı kıyı kentlerine saldırıda bulunduğu ve bu yerleşim yerlerini kontrolü altına aldığı anlaşılmaktadır. Bu da, Rusyanın Karadenize ve Azak Denizine olan kıyısını ve deniz yetki alanlarını daha da artırma amacında olduğunu göstermektedir.
