Özet:

 

The article focuses on the British attitude towards Turkey's policies  in the Middle East in the period betvveen, 1945-47. At the start of the Cold  War Turkey faced an obvious threat from the Soviet Union directed against  her independence and territorial integrity. She at fırst asked for British and  later American help to thwart this danger. Turkey, simultaneously, tried to  establish a security zone around her borders with the Arab states closest to  Britain. In this context, therefore, the article deals vvith Turkey's efforts to  improve her relations vvith the regional states. It then goes on to examine  hovv Great Britain and the Soviet Union reacted to the Turkish political and  strategic attempts in the Middle East. The paper argues that Turkey adopted  a narrovv bilateral line vvith the Arab states rather than a broad regional  approach. The main reasons for this approach vvere: fırst, Turkey, under the  rule of President İnönü, vvas reluctant to go too far in engaging in Middle  Eastern affairs; second, London took a hesitant attitude tovvards Ankara's  policies in the region; and last, Moscovv strongly reacted to Turkey's  political steps vvith the Arab states.
