  • Summary

    The emergence of the Turkish National movement in 1919 marked the opening of a new chapter in modern Turkish history. Numerous academic studies have analysed the rise of the Turkish National Movement, yet the reactions of the Armenian community have remained an understudied topic. This chapter examines how the Ottoman Armenians perceived the Turkish National Movement in Anatolia by utilising primary sources, including Armenian and Ottoman Turkish papers of the period. In doing so, this chapter provides new insight into the Ottoman Armenian community during the years in which the Turkish National Movement arose and aims to explain the political position of the Ottoman Armenians from 1919 to 1920, thus filling a gap in the recent historiography. This chapter clarifies the features of the political position of the Ottoman Armenians before the French, Greek, and Armenian defeats by the Nationalist forces.
