TURKISH – BULGARIAN RELATIONS IN THE EARLY REPUBLICAN ERA ACCORDING TO THE HÂKİMİYET-İ MİLLİYE NEWSPAPER (1923-1930)
Öz
In this study, the reflections of the relations between the Republic of Turkey
and Bulgaria between the years of 1923-1930 are evaluated from the
Hakimiyet-i Milliye newspaper also with reference to archive documents. The
symphaty towards the Turkish National Struggle in Bulgaria which was
defeated in the World War I, has paved the way for better relations between
the two countries. Although the radical nationalists’ rhetoric and policies have
been met with suspect in Turkey after the military coup that overthrown the
Bulgarian Farmer’s Party from the power, it was succeeded in overcoming the
mutual distrust and a “Treaty of Friendship” was signed between two
countries in 1925. Despite the agreement, the problems arising from the recent
past events between the two states and two societies occasionally showed
themselves. “Treaty of Neutrality, Conciliation, Judicial Settlement and
Arbitration” was signed between the two states in 1929. However, coming to
the end of 1920s, Turkey’s determination of its international politics in favor of the status quo and while Bulgaria was approaching to the revisionist bloc
with Italy, Turkey’s rapprochement strategy with the other Balkan states
whose interests are irreconcilable with the interests of Bulgaria, caused a
deterioration in relations. The nature of the political and diplomatic relations
between Turkey and Bulgaria also affected economic, social and cultural
relations. The press, which is producing and also reflecting and emitting
public perception, provides detailed data to understand the relationship
between the two countries
