Abstract

Peace conferences that are organized to end wars usually focus on plans and principles of the great powers. The London Peace Conference in 1921 was built on the Peace Treaty of Sevres that made its mark in 1920. The London Peace Conference was commenced by the participation of Turkey, Greece, England, France, Italy and Japan on the 21st of February 1921. In this conference, where the main case was the Treaty of Sevres, Greece aimed to sustain the support of England within frame of the famous Eastern Question. In return, Turkey expressed the principles of the National Pact. The expectation of Greece regarding the status of Izmir and Thrace in the context of Sevres was supported by England and the conference turned into a war commission rather than a peace conference. The conference, in which France and Italy specified changes about their political standing, was also important for crystallizing the disagreements between the Allied Powers. This paper aims to shed light on the changing policies of Greece on Anatolian Campaign after the defeat at the First Inonu Battle and her relation with Allies in 1921. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
