Russia's Defence Ministry said on Wednesday it would deem all ships travelling to Ukrainian ports to be potential carriers of military cargo and their flag countries to be parties to the conflict on the Ukrainian side.
Turkey won’t allow military ships to pass the Bosporus in any direction while there’s a war on. This prevents Russia from reinforcing their Black Sea fleet but also prevents Western navies from entering.

Sounds like what you’re saying is Ukraine needs more droneboats to clear Russia off the Black Sea.
So the whole merchant fleet needs to fly Turkish flags and get a Turkish navy escort then.
