Mr. Kitson: …I have no doubts about the will of Armenians about killing their
Muslim neighbours. Armed Armenian Dashnak gangs are working with

extraordinary savagery.… Although we don't trust them, it is in our interests
to use the Kurds. As to the Eastern provinces, we cannot separate those regions
and make them Kurdistan and Armenia without fighting the Turks first. 189

London Conference: …Trabzon and Adana should also be given to Armenia,

in addition to those six provinces. The US will help Armenia… Some people
say "There is not even one Armenian in Trabzon. So isn't it ridiculous to have
an Armenia without Armenians?''… A small Turkish state should be set up,

the capitulations can be extended to cover jurisprudence as well. We had to lift
the capitulations in Japan, because they were strong. We had no other option.

Turkish mind was far less precise than the Japanese. [Noble Turkish nation

A meeting in the British Foreign Office: … Lloyd George: 'We have to drive

Turks out of Istanbul'… Mr. Cambon: 'Mustafa Kemal Pasha is the source of
all problems and the Sultan has a hard time keeping him in check'…. 1/3 of
the French groups are French soldiers and the rest is indigenous Armenians…

If our commissioner in Istanbul cannot prevent these, he should threaten the
Sultan by saying 'otherwise we'll kick you out of Istanbul'. If at the time, when
Erzurum was supposed to be taken by the new Armenian State, Mustafa

Kemal wasn't around, the Armenians could have a chance… Mustafa Kemal's
troops are not paid, it is their love for their country that drives them. 191

A British report: Ardahan, Batum and İmer valley will be given. Armenian

borders with Kurdistan and Turkey will be as follows: Yanbati River in Black-
sea … Western border of Erzurum, Bitlis river. 192

San Remo Conference: …The borders of Turkey: Erzurum will be given to
Armenians and thus the Great Armenian State theory will become true. Ital-

ian Nitti, '…Since Turks are the majority in Erzurum, we have to find a way
to kick them out. Lately Erzurum has been the center of the nationalist move-
ment.' Mr. Berthelot, 'Mustafa Kemal and his forces can be eliminated

through bribery or by other means'… Mr. Aharonian said, "Mustafa Kemal's
army is much smaller than you think and is undisciplined." [Noble Turkish
