In 1827, Great Britain, France, and Russia directed Turkey to accept an armistice. The Turks refused and the navies of these three countries trapped and destroyed the Turkish fleet at Navarino. The Near Eastern or Middle Eastern crisis was when Russia declared a war of expansion against the Turks and claimed much of present day Romania.
