Abstract:

The Ottoman State, which was on the side of Germany in the First World War, fought on many fronts against the opposition states. After four years of war, the defeated state was withdrawn from the war by signing the Mondros Convention. The warranty, which contained very heavy sentences, was in the form of a warranty of surrender rather than a fire. When the counterfeit materials were examined, the idea was that the Ottoman State wanted to be completely defensive against a possible attack. After the signing of Mutareke, the Opposition states, which were expanding soldiers to the various regions of Istanbul and Anadolu, had decided to gather a conference in Paris to their main goals. The conference planned the taxation of the territories of the Ottoman State and the establishment of new states under the support of the great states in Anadolu. At the conference, where the Armenian demands came to the forefront, a large Armenia was agreed to be established in the east, with an opening to the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. But another matter that was as important as the establishment of the Armenian State was which state would be under the protection of the Western State. Britain and France insisted that the United States was the mandatory state for Armenia but had concerns about the Armenian claims. On the other hand, the American public could not be neglected in terms of mandatory. In this study, the Armenian claims revealed during the Paris Conference on the way to the establishment of the Armenian State and the approach of the countries participating in the conference will be attempted to be transmitted to the Armenian.
