The Conference of London (February 21 and March 12 1921 and March 1922, London, Great Britain) of the post-World War I Allied conference to push the conditions of the Treaty of Sèvres to Turkish Revolutionaries.
First stage
To salvage the Treaty of Sèvres between February 21 and March 12 1921 conference was staged at London. Triple Entente forced the nationalists to agree with the Istanbul government. Bekir Sami, from Ankara, insisted that the delegate from Istanbul can not enter the negotiations. Also he refused to make Sêvres the basis for the discussions. Sêvres was the Ottoman agreement with the Allies, not with the Ankara. Franklin—Bouillon, the French foreign minister, saw the need to develop a new perspective and he developed the policies in recognizing the Ankara government, in Allied side.
Second stage
Another meeting in London was held in March 1922. The Allies, without considering the extent of Ankara's successes, hoped to impose modified Serves as a peace settlement on Ankara. The Entente foreign ministers proposed Ankara to establish an Armenian state in eastern Anatolia, removing Turkish troops from the Straits area, Turkish abandonment to the Greeks of Smyrna and eastern Thrace, including Adrianople. On the positive side they were raising the Sèvres limits on the Turkish army to 85,000 men, eliminating the European financial controls over the Turkish government but retaining the Capitulations and Public Debt Commission, etc. These proposals were so incompatible with the National Pact that it was easy for the Ankara Assembly to reject them.
