Thank you.
And 130 at its widest, and substantially wider than the Strait of Dover throughout most of its area, so again there's tons water outside of their jurisdiction.
"Net, ship is there for unrelated reasons." I think you're being a bit naive. (accidentally hit post) Nobody is going to sanctions to warships, even if they're escorting a sanctioned ship.
…. Uhhh no it’s ~78 at its widest. Meaning that there’s only about 30 NM at its widest to be in the area you are talking about. And the article literally says it was within 20 NM shore when this happened, so once again, talking out of your ass.
And yet Turkey did exactly that to Russian warships:

That link has several other tidbits about how this would play out. Essentially, Russia is under sanctions, their companies owe debts, Russia has committed war crimes, the president is wanted by the IOC, there’s a bunch of reasons why the warships could be prevented passage, but not only prevented passage but taken control of and their crew detained and tried.
