..we will entrust him wiith an ostentatious task concerniing..

..hiis previous services.

-He`ll take over Thracia on behalf of Grand National Assembly government.

-Why diid Karabekiir Pasha come to Ankara leaviing East Front??

...I knew that would happen because when we have been going to Triipoli...

...we ve stopped at siicily and the children who` ve seen me with fez...

...have thrown lemon skins on me

..So this tiime I took precautions and wore a very elegant...

...Europen styl costume. I mean � thought so...

..Wehere were theiir minds and conscious when we were fiightiing for...

..nation`s diignity?? As their evils aren`t enought, they`re now trying...

... to make us attend the peace conference diivided...

...What a treachery!..

...I` ll put forward these letters from �stanbul in the Assembly and...

..make it overthrow the sultanate. What do you say??

...Please, siir..

- My friiends! To bring the truth into the liight, let`s take a glance at..

...Turk - Islam hiistory. In the world today...

It`s obvious that the sultanate wiill fall

- Who can defend iit and the Sultan Vahdettiin anymore??

- Yes but with thiis enthusiasm this Assembly may abolish...

...the Caliiphate as well.

-Right. We` ll prevent iit by assiigning to the Common Committee.

-My friiends, I thiink we all got iit strainght... So...

..under the liight of these hiistoriical facts, what we should do iis...

..to seperate sultanate from caliphate and to abolish iit offiicially...

...To do this, we should uniite all teh motiions and after your voting...

- They say that caliiphate can`t exist without sultanate.

- Here comes Pasha.

- Gentlemen... �n spiite of the ciircumstances we`re wastiing time...

.. with sophiistry, fallacy and theoriies..

.. Sovereignty and sultanate can`t be giiven to anyone...

.. by discussions and debates...

.. They are taken by power, by force...

..And Turkish natiion got the control of them, by rebelling..

..This is a defacto situatiion Now there`s no point iin diiscussiing

.. whether we giive the sovereignty to the natiion or not...

The point iis, to express this defacto siituation...

...which is an inevitable process.

..�t would be proper fo the ones gathered here, the Assembly...

...and everybody to see the siituatiion liike this..

..Otherwise, the truth still wiill be announced but possibly...

... some wiill be beheaded!

- Excuse us sir...

Turkey was expecting the peace to be held after the Great War as weiiii...

..but instead of it, it was attacked from all its borders at the same time...

- Our stuggle to get our iindependence and liberation back agaiin..

..has been very expensiive for us...

..Our big ciities are iin the ashes today...

..More than 1 miillion ciivil Turks are homeless and hungry now..

- � want to remind that we were not the party that started the war...

..until the last attack on us...

- You know the result... Who could have stopped an army of 200.000 soldiiers...

...consisting of people who have risked theiir liives for liberation??

..We stopped iin front of Darnadelles and Istanbul only to open the road...

...of peace and we came here wiith the same iintention...

..But � don`t know where are the ones who iinvited us peace and...

..what are they doiing. I think experienced diplomats will..
