Birinci Dünya Savaşı Sonunda Türkiye’deki Rumların Koruyuculuğu Meselesine Amerikan Ve İngiliz Basınının Bakışı
The View of American and British Press on the Protection of Greeks at the End of the WWI

Summary/Abstract: The mandate and patronage system emerged at the Paris Peace Conference which took place at the end of the First World War and changed the balance of the whole world. While this system was described as the development of the undeveloped and developing countries under the supervision of second developed countries, it meant that the states that entered the first group came under the hegemony of the states that entered the second group. Therefore, it appears as another version of colonialism. The question of the protection of the Greeks that we have included in the scope of the article is one of the controversies raised by the question of what will be the status of the Greeks by the end of the Ottoman Empire. The issue of minorities was seen as the easiest way to interfere in the internal affairs of a state, and it was used as the most classical method to pretend that the minority was crushed and tortured in the society in which it lived. After the First World War, the view of the Greeks in the landscape of what appeared to be commented on. In this study, the implications of the protection of Greeks on American and British press will be discussed.
