NSC at “The Growing Importance of the Black Sea”

The New Strategy Center participated from September 28–30 in the conference “The Growing Importance of the Black Sea”, organized by the Sofia Security Forum in Bulgaria and the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung, in Constanța.

The New Strategy Center was represented by Rear Admiral (ret.) Iuri Covaleov, Senior Associate Expert. In the presentation “Maritime Coalition of the Willing in the Black Sea – Challenges and Perspectives”, the discussion focused on the possibility of forming a maritime coalition of the willing in the Black Sea region, considering the existence of shared interests related to regional security and stability. Currently, the initiative by Turkey, Romania, and Bulgaria against naval mines provides a very good framework for developing such a coalition. The main priorities for countries in the region include navigation security, protection of critical infrastructure, and safeguarding the security of communication lines.

At its core, a luxury mechanical watch is a triumph of micro-engineering. Imagine a universe contained within a diameter of 30 to 40 millimeters. Hundreds of tiny components—gears, levers, springs, and jewels—coexist in a perfectly orchestrated ballet.

The mainspring stores energy, releasing it with controlled grace through the gear train, its rhythm governed by the hypnotic swing of the balance wheel. This "heart" of the watch, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour or more, is a miracle of physics and precision.
