Özet:

 Foreign policy and military matters were two significant subject which frequently came to fore in the Turkish Grand National Assembly meetings during the period of the War of Independence. All members of the parliament agreed on the unity of the homeland and independence of the nation. However, they did not fully agree on the methods to achieve the aims and to receive foreign support. At this point, the year of 1921 was a breaking point. In this study, the struggle of two various approaches, which both aimed to reach the independence of the homeland with different methods, was examined as it was reflected in the periods newspapers. While doing this, the resignation events of Turkiyes first Foreign Minister Bekir Sami Bey and the Fevzi Pasha Government were examined as an example.The study is mostly based on the periodicals Vakit, İleri, İkdam, Akşam, Peyam-ı Sabah, Tercüman-ı Hakikat, Alemdar, Hakimiyet-i Milliye but the archival documents, assembly registers and monographies were also vastly consulted. Why did Bekir Sami Bey, Turkiyes first minister of foreign affairs, resign from his post? How did the Turkish press evaluate this resignation? What kind of efforts were made by Mustafa Kemal Pasha to achieve political and ideological unity in the Assembly in the frame of the National Pact? These are the questions that this study aims to respond. The study concludes that the clash of ideas diminished in May 1921 as the Group for the Defense of the Rights of Anatolia and Rumelia increased its authority under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Pasha.

 Kurtuluş Savaşı Döneminde Türkiye Büyük Millet Meclisi görüşmelerinde her daim öne çıkan iki önemli konu olmuştur. Bunlar dış siyaset ve askeri meselelerdir. Vatanın bütünlüğü ve milletin bağımsızlığı mevzularında tüm vekiller hem fikirdir. Ancak amaca giden yolda izlenecek yöntem ve gerekli dış destek hususlarında tam bir birlik sağlanamamıştır. Bu noktada 1921 yılı Mayıs ayı bir kırılma noktasını teşkil etmiştir. Bu çalışmada, vatanın kurtuluşunu amaç edinmiş ancak metot noktasında anlaşamamış iki ayrı fikri gücün üstünlük mücadelesinin bir nevi basına yansımaları ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada; özellikle dönemin süreli yayınları Vakit, İleri, İkdam, Akşam, Peyâm-ı Sabah, Tercüman-ı Hakikat, Alemdar, Hâkimiyet-i Milliye temel alınmış, arşiv belgeleri, meclis zabıt cerideleri ve tetkik eserlerden de istifade edilmiştir. Makalede, Türkiyenin ilk Hariciye Vekili Bekir Sami Bey neden istifa etmiştir? Bu istifanın basına akisleri hangi yönde olmuştur? Türk basını Fevzi Paşa başkanlığındaki Heyet-i Vekilenin istifasını nasıl karşılamıştır? Mustafa Kemal Paşa, ilk mecliste Misak-ı Milli çerçevesinde siyasi ve fikri birliği sağlamak adına hangi adımları atmıştır? Biçimindeki sorulara cevap aranmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda milli mücadelenin yöntemi hususundaki fikri ayrılıkların, Mayıs 1921 tarihinde Mustafa Kemal Paşa liderliğindeki Anadolu ve Rumeli Müdafaa-i Hukuk Grubunun ipleri eline almasına bağlı olarak azaldığı tespit edilmiştir.
