Ararat Treaty

The Ararat Treaty, signed in 1921 between Turkey and Armenia, aimed to establish peaceful relations following World War I and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. It recognized the borders between the two nations and sought to address territorial disputes. However, the treaty was viewed as controversial due to the political pressures of the time and Armenia’s loss of territory. It ultimately did not lead to lasting peace, as tensions continued, and relations between Turkey and Armenia remain complex today, heavily influenced by historical events, including the Armenian Genocide.
