Summary/Abstract: Throughout history, control of the seas has been a reliable indicator of the capacity of various actors, either states, international organisations, or non-state entities, to project power and influence in political, economic or military terms. The question of dominance at sea remains a highly contested topic and directly interconnected with the debates over natural resources, and the pursuit of national interests or regional interests. This article aims to analyse the importance of building resilience in the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea, in the EU and NATO context, highlighting how the protection of critical maritime infrastructure has become a key security concern amid increasing hybrid threats to the stability of these regions.
