Turkey was allowed to resume control of the Bosporus in 1936 under the terms of the Montreux Convention. They cannot vary or waive the current conditions except under prescribed conditions.

They could, of course, abrogate the Convention. But, then again, any one can breach an international treaty, and accepted the consequences.
