Warm water ports needed for Russia is total hogwash, and an excuse for those that do not know the geography of Russia really,without being offended.

Russia has Novorossiysk who has big sea port, excellent rail connection and airport could be if it is not by now a great as a naval base, then a natural location at Gelendzhik with an airfield, much better situated than Sevastopol from a military point of view

In addition Anapa can also be used as a naval base, not to mention the bay across Kerch, and they build a modern port facility at Sochi. Arkhipo-Osipovka and Golubaya Bukhta could also serve as a warm water navel base if there is any serious interest. All those places are strategically covered by the Caucasus Mountains so they are shielded from an surprised air attack from the back
