Turkish Neutrality and Great Power Pressure in the Second World War

Abstract

The official name of Turkiye is the Republic of Turkiye. Turkiye is an important country in terms of geographical location. Turkiye comprises the entirety of the Anatolian Peninsula in south-west Asia and parts of the Southern tip of the Balkan Peninsula in south-east Europe. This area was very important from the point of view of military location. Throughout the history of human civilization, Turkiye has served as a bridge for the movement of people between Asia and Europe. Turkiye was a neutral country at the beginning of the Second World War. Because of its strategic importance, both the Allies and the Central Powers sought to recruit Turkiye to their side at the start of the Second World War. At that time, the Allies and Axis Powers invested in Turkiye to attract the country to their side. The Turkish general public and military officials were unwilling to participate in the Second World War. So it can be said that Turkiye was completely neutral in the Second World War. Turkiye did not participate in any groups.
