US’s Attempt to Feature 1974 Cyprus Crisis Instead of Poppy Issue Regarding Embargo Decision on Turkey
Abstract
The decree to ban poppy, which has been cultivated in Anatolia for thousands of years, caused a great disturbance in the Turkish public opinion. On July 1, 1974, the ban was canceled by the Turkish government. The decree caused great displeasure and disappointment in the USA. Although the United States tried to implement a new policy of repression for the reversal of the decision, the Turkish government did not back down. On top of that initiative it has launched a military and economic embargo against Turkey under the leadership of the US Congress. However, the US administration approached this option more cautiously on the grounds that the embargo would strengthen the anti-US groups in the Turkish public opinion. While the poppy tension continued, the Greek junta carried out a coup in Cyprus on July 15, 1974. Turkey, has been interpreted this coup as a step towards Enosis and responded to the two military operations. The US administration, by interpreting the Cyprus crisis as an opportunity, rather than popping the embargo decree, Turkey has found it more appropriate for the binding of these reasons. İn this way both to calm the Greek public about Cyprus, as well as possible reactions from Turkey could take retrubition the decree of poppy. In this study, although the main reason for the embargo against Turkey being the abolition of the ban on poppy cultivation to be at the forefront of the 1974 Cyprus crisis was investigated by the United States. In this study, although the abolition of the ban on poppy cultivation the main reason for the embargo to Turkey, instead of this reason featuring the Cyprus crisis by the US was investigated.
