| dc.description.abstract | Following the developments in the last months of 1963, the Republic of Cyprus,declared in 1960, was ended and the conflicts between the two communities onthe island started again. Turkey followed closely the situation of Turks on the island.Turkey made it clear that it would not hesitate to conduct a military interventionon the island in order to protect the Turkish Cypriots. In 1964, the Turkishgovernment planned a military intervention in the island, but it was stoppedby the U.S. In November 1967, a new crisis emerged on the island after theGreeks attacked two Turkish villages on the island. Turkey began preparationsfor a military operation in the island. This study analyzes the developments beforeand after the 1967 crisis. Turkey and Britain were one of the guarantorpowers of the Republic of Cyprus. Their approach to the crisis was examined inthe light of archival documents. This study showed that while Turkey was readyto perform military intervention on the island, the British government was opposedto it. Britain tried to prevent a possible Turkish military intervention.Starting from the crisis of 1964, the increasing American influence on the Cyprusproblem helped this policy of the British. The British were happy that the 1967crisis was ended without Turkish intervention on the island. On the other hand,Turkish public opinion was disturbed by the Turkish government’s policy duringthe crisis. The Demirel government was criticized for not allowing a military operation.This study made an examination of the 1967 Cyprus crisis in the frameworkof British and Turkish policies | |
