Bosphorus
A wiki link on the subject can be
found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosphorus
Addendum: I can't vouch for the accuracy of the following:
The Admiral Kuznetsov is Russia’s only operational aircraft carrier. The article clarifies that Russia refers to the ship as an aircraft-carrying cruiser because “under international treaties aircraft carriers are banned from passing through the Bosporus and Dardanelles…. But this ban does not extend to aircraft-carrying cruisers.”
