Abstract:

Upon the withdrawal of Allies from the Dardanelles Wars which is extremly important for history of Turks and world, Britain constituted a comission about the issue, and make it prepare a report about the reasons, process and results after a deep investigation. Moreover, the views of the Prime Minister Asquith and Secretary of Navy Churchill were added to the report. The report was published in Times in 1917. The correspondence Sydney Mosley, who personally was in battlefields, published a book called “The Truth about Dardanelles” in order to clarify the claims. Additionally, another report called “Evacuation of Dardanelles” was prepared by British commanders De Robeck and R.Wemyss about the withdrawal from Dardanelles. It was also published in Times. All these reports were translated into Ottoman Turkish by the Turkish Intelligence Officer Husameddin Bey in the same year and published in İstanbul. Our aim was to evaluate the Dardanelles Wars by avoiding the repetition of the things written and benefiting from the information presented and discussed clearly in Britain. We aimed at adding a new perspective in the light of relevant reports during this evaulation.
