Synopsis
The study evaluated the “operational part” of the intelligence report titled The Situation in Turkey 15 March 1920 prepared by the Great Britain War Office. The operations section of the intelligence report included observations on Anatolian geography and Turkish military capabilities in order to eliminate the uncertainties of a possible operation. The report, which also analyses the developments and predictions regarding Turkey and its nearby geography during the National Struggle, provides multifaceted information in terms of understanding Great Britain’s approach to the National Struggle. In the intelligence report, Great Britain analyzed the military aspects of the process leading up to Sevres and stated that the military occupation of Anatolia would not be possible based on various factors.
