Abstract (EN)
In the 20th century, oil was included in Britain's interests in the Mediterranean, and the determination to neutralize any threat in this regard was the basis of British diplomacy, General Charles Vere Ferrers Townshend said in the First World War. He was appointed to the Iraqi Front in early 1915. General Townshend and his troops, surrounded by Halil (Kut) Pasha in Kût-ul Amara, found their way to a solution on April 29, 1916. Accompanied by Mr. Ishak, General Townshend left for Baghdad by ferry on May 3, 1916, while the other generals were transferred to Baghdad with some officers on May 4-5, 1916. British and Indian prisoners were later placed in various camps in Anatolia. General Townshend's and the accompanying group's journey to Istanbul began on May 12, 1916 and ended on June 3, 1916. General Townshend's life of captivity was in Heybeliada and Buyukada, and all kinds of conveniences were shown to him throughout his captivity. He was seen as a guest, not a prisoner. From April 29, 19016 to October 20, 1918, when he spent his captivity, General Townshend recognized turks and made an impression and influence among Turks in accordance with his own structure. The dissatisfied approaches of the Turks were as a mediator's statement of gratitude for the end of the captivity lives of him and the British soldiers. General Townshend criticised his British diploma during his return home. He said he wanted to see Turkey not as a hostile country, but as an ally that needed to be won. In this context, General Townshend will visit Turkey and strive as a Turkish friend. Keywords: Captivity, General Townshend, Iraqi Front, Kût-ul-Amâra, National Struggle
