In the News (Tue 14 Feb 12)

  
  Armistice of Mudros - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Armistice of Mudros was signed between the Ottoman Empire (represented by the Ottoman Minister of Marine Affairs Rauf Beg) and the Allies (represented by the British Admiral Arthur Calthorpe), in the Mudros port in the island of Lemnos on 30 October 1918.
This armistice ended the middle-eastern part of the First World War and the Ottomans had to renounce all of their empire, with the exception of Anatolia and giving up to all their garrisons in Hedjaz, Yemen, Syria, Mesopotamia, Tripolitania and Cirenaica.
The allies occupied the area around the straits of the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus, Batum and the tunnels of the Tauros Mountains and had the right to occupy six provinces with Armenian populations in north-eastern Anatolia in case of disorder, as well as any strategic point which mattered to the security of the Allies.

Behind this immediate fear, however, stands a far longer history - a history of claim to Mosul, which yesterday fell into the hands of Iraqi Kurds.
In 1918, at the end of World War I, British forces cheated on the Armistice of Mudros by requiring the defeated Ottoman forces to withdraw completely from both the city and the province of Mosul - ensuring that Mosul became a bitter bone of contention.
Ataturk's National Pact of 1919, the emotive 'title deed' of modern Turkey, included the province within its boundaries and it was only reluctantly that Turkey accepted the 1925 League of Nations ruling that the province would remain part of Iraq.
