The Turkish İletişim Publishing House has for the seventh time republished the book “The Armenian Issue is Resolved,” authored by the famous Genocide scholar, professor Taner Akçam, Akunq.net reports.

According to the source, in response to the general dissatisfaction, Young Turkish Unity and Progress Party cleared the lands of Anatolia from non-Muslim elements and “turkisized” them right in the aftermath of the Balkan wars. The WWI became one of the most important milestones of that policy.

It created a convenient climate for the exile and forced deportation of ethnic elements.  The large-scale “deportation” against Armenians in 1915 became the last phase of “turkising.”

Taner Akçam, who carried out research on the basis of the Ottoman Empire documents, draws attention to the question on what the primary sources say on this. The author presents the activities carried out upon the order of Talaat Pasha, being under his permanent control. The author also answers the question on why the Armenians were “deported” to different districts of Anatolia.
