Η ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΕΚΣΤΡΑΤΕΙΑ ΣΤΗ ΜΙΚΡΑ ΑΣΙΑ ΚΑΙ Η ΣΤΑΣΗ ΤΩΝ ΙΝΔΩΝ ΜΟΥΣΟΥΛΜΑΝΩΝ 1918-1922

THE GREEK DEMANDS AT THE END OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR COINCIDED WITH THE MOVEMENT OF THE MUSLIMS IN INDIA IN FAVOUR OF THE SOLIDARITY OF THE SULTAN'S EMPIRE KNOWN AS "KHILAFAT MOVEMENT". IN INDIA IT WAS CONSIDERED THAT GR. BRITAIN WAS THE PRIMARY SUPPORTER OF THE PLAN FOR THE DISMEMBERMENT OF THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE. THUS THE POSTWAR PROCEEDINGS FROM THE MUDROS ARMISTICE UP TO THE TREATY OF SERVES (10 AUGUST 1920) AROUSED SUSPICION AMONG THE INDIAN MUSLIMS AGAINST THE ENGLISH GOVERNMENT AND LED THE FORMER TO OVERT HOSTILITY TOWARDS THE GREEK ATTEMTS FOR THE EMBODIMENT OF EASTERN THRACE AND OF IONIA IN GREECE. ON THE OTHER HAND THE INDIAN NATIONALISTS, INCLUDING GANDHI, SUPPORTED THE KHILAFAT MOVEMENT FOR POLITICAL REASONS. THE STRENGTH OF THE MOVEMENT CAUSED SERIOUS WORRIES TO THE BRITISH INDIAN GOVERNMENT AND PROVIDED A MOTIVE FOR THE CHANGE IN ITS ATTITUDE TOWARDS TURKEY. THE PRESSURE ON THE PART OF THE INDIAN MUSLIMS, WHICH STARTED THE DAY AFTER THE MUDROS ARMISTICE, CULMINATED DURING THE PERIOD OF THEGREEK SETTLEMENT IN ASIA MINOR. THE CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH A PRESSURE WERE THEINDIAN ENCOURAGEMENT OF THE NATIONALIST TURKS AND THE PREVENTION BY THE FORMER OF GR. BRITAIN TO FULFILL ITS ALLIED DUTIES TOWARDS THE GREEKS. IN THIS WORK-WHICH IS BASED ON UNPUBLISHED MAINLY BRITISH AND INDIAN MATERIAL-THERE IS A THOROUGH ANALYSIS OF THE ISSUES AND AN APPRECIATION OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE KHILAFAT MOVEMENT IN RELATION TO THE INDIAN-BRITISH RELATIONSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT AND TRAGIC ENDING OF THE GREEK EXPEDITION IN ASIA MINOR.
