Abstract :Ali Fethi Okyar\'s son Prof.Dr. In the introduction part of the work written by Osman Okyar, the relations of Mustafa Kemal and the founding staff of the Republic with the USSR were discussed in order to finance the National Struggle.Turkey received the help of the USSR in order to make the National Struggle movement successful.The National Struggle cadre succeeded in not being under the control of the USSR, thanks to the rational policies it carried out in return for the financial aid. The policies of Mustafa Kemal, the leader of the National Struggle, towards the USSR between 1920 and 1921 constitute the main axis of this book. Thanks to the rational strategic initiatives of Mustafa Kemal towards the USSR, the necessary resources were provided from the USSR to the National Struggle and also saved Turkey from being one of the satellite states of the USSR.Keywords : Milli Mücadele, Ankara, Moskova, Mustafa Kemal Paşa, SSCB
