Abstract :
Results of 1st World War are also the reasons of 2nd World war. The War started in the early morning of September the 1st in 1939 where Germans passed the Polish border, with the news of an unexpected attack to a radio station, while Soviets also entered Poland from the east. The Second World War troubled both the involved nations and the others as well in 6 years. Inspite of being involved, the unluckiest country which had serious effects of war, was Turkey. When Turkey found out the battlecries of the upcoming war, in order to save the young republic, made new allies for the sake of country and its people. Britain’s Prime Minister Churchill, tried to convince Roosvelt for making Turkey a base for defendin Mediterranean. After Casablanca meeting, Churchill came to Turkey/ADANA in order to convince Turkey to fight for their side and met with İnönü. Meetings lasted for 2 days. This meeting is also called “Dialogue of the Deaf” because they were completely opposite to each other and they left the meeting with the idea of victory. It was a remarkable event both domestic and foreign press. Turkey detained England with impossible conditions. Turkey remained neutral untill February 1945 and after that, when the winning side appears, in order to be in the newly established United Nations, declared nonfunctional war to Germany and Japan.
