Özet:

At the end of the First World War, the mission of preparing the treaties of peace was given at the conference held in Paris on 18 January 1919. The opposition states that directed the conference wanted a large Armenia to be established. In this direction, the High Council announced that the Song provinces of the Ottoman State would be left to Armenia. On this news, the Muslims of the province of Sharkiye to the representatives of the Opposition States that the rights of the majority should not be sacrificed to the minority warriors, that this is contrary to the Wilson Principles, and that if this decision is not abandoned, they will enter into armed struggle. The protest telegraphs, which began withdrawal in March 1919, have historic importance in terms of the preparation stage of the Turkish Liberation War. In the subsequent period, in addition to the Armenian project of the Opposite States, the Kurdistan establishment plans were presented in order to divide Muslims from each other. But the Kurdistan project, which was thought to be established under the support of the British, did not find a response in the Kurdish people, and it was not possible to separate the Turkish and Kurdish from each other. The Ottoman governments were unable to stand against the imperialist policies of the opposition states, and the people of Vilayât-i Şarkiye were abandoned to their own fate. The rightful case of the Muslims in the province of Sharkiye was defended by the Mutafa-i Law-i Millions and Reddi Ilhak communities under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Pasha.
