      Аннотация: With the withdrawal of Ottoman State from the Northern Iraq after the World War, Britain contacted with the local elements in order to control the areas where the Kurdish were living, especially in Mosul. The British administration in Iraq sent liaison officers to the region with the directives of London Government and began field work in order to be able to establish a satellite Kurdish state, including parts of Anatolia.

In the traffic of negotiations starting with the Paris Peace Conference, how to establish the states planned to be created in Syria and Iraq was put on the agenda during the secret diplomatic talks with both the Arabs and Frenchmen.
