Özet
By the Lausanne Peace Treaty of 1923, the borders of the new Turkish state were largely determined. However, the determination of the border with Iraq was left to a later date. The Syrian border did not actually take its final shape. In this study, the border relations of Iran and Turkey are discussed as well as these two states between 1923 and 1940. The most important factors affecting the course of these relations are the unique conditions of that region and period as well as the delay in drawing of the borders with Turkey beside the anti-Turkish policies of English and French mandatory administrations established in Iraq and Syria. At the end of the study, it is seen that with the improvement of neighborly relations and other measures taken, an atmosphere of safety and peace was achieved at the borders.
