Talaat Pasha's Telegrams

Talaat Pasha's Telegrams refer to a series of secret messages sent by Talaat Pasha, the Ottoman Empire's Minister of Interior and later leader during World War I, which revealed plans to systematically deport and exterminate Armenians. These telegrams detailed orders for harsh measures, including mass arrests and killings, exposing a coordinated, state-led genocide. Their discovery is a key historical record, confirming the Ottoman government's direct involvement in orchestrating the Armenian genocide.
