There's NO WAY Turkey could close the Balck Sea to Russia. But they could close the Bosporus Strait.

For a little while.

But that strait is covered under the Montreux Convention Regarding the Regime of the Turkish Straits of July 20, 1936.

It would be a clear act of war on Turkey's part and would offer legitimacy to any Russian military action to re-open them.

NATO WILL NOT SUPPORT THIS.

Turkey and Russia have similar populations. It might be a pretty even fight
