The Treaty of Lausanne: Empowering Turkiye's Territorial Integrity
Welcome to TIME PRINTER where we explore the remarkable events of TIME.
Today we will highlight one of the most discussed and criticized International Agreements in the ongoing world, the Treaty of Lausanne.
With any international agreement in the world, it lasts only for 100 years. By 2023, Turkiye will be free from the tie of this agreement, and it will positively impact on the overall development of Turkiye.
The Treaty of Lausanne was signed on July 24, 1923. This international treaty recognized the boundaries of the newly established modern state of Turkiye.
After Mustafa Kemal Ataturk's armies defeated the Greek invaders and drove them out of Anatolia, a treaty was signed at Mudanya on October 11, 1922.
When the British saw their allies defeated and realized that the Italians and French were also not willing to oppose Turkey's liberation movement, they ended their occupation of Istanbul and the Straits.
As a result, Turkish troops entered Istanbul on October 19, 1922. This Turkish victory led to the downfall of the Lloyd George government and the calling of the peace treaty by Britain.
Ismet Inonu, the leader of the victorious Turkish national forces, led the Turkish delegation at the peace talks in Lausanne. The countries represented at the talks were Britain, France, Italy, Japan, Greece, Romania, and Serbo-Croatia. Later, Russia, Belgium, and Portugal joined the negotiations to discuss the Turkish straits and financial matters related to the former Ottoman Empire. The United States attended the talks as an observer.
The negotiations began on November 21, 1922 and lasted over eight months. Turkey wanted its borders, Turkish straits, and capitulations recognized. Borders were accepted with special conditions for Iskenderun and Mosul. Iskenderun joined Turkey in 1939, but Mosul became part of Iraq.
Turkey gained control of the straits with rules for international traffic and Black Sea countries, agreed in the Montreux Treaty on July 20, 1936. The Turkish War of National Liberation was fought by a devastated nation against the most powerful imperial states of the time, Britain and France, and their allies Italy and Greece.
This victory became a source of inspiration for many other nations in their struggle against Western imperialism and independence for years to come.
