In this negotiation, after the head which shows the sides’ common trust on Sultanate and Caliphate, they started to negotiate the decisions which had been taken in Sivas Congress on 11 September 1919:
1- Providing the compliance with the final decision of the countrywide Assembly, the borders that encompass been stipulated before shall be protected (the principle of the integrity and indivisible union of the country was accepted thereof).
It was determined necessary to prevent the disorder by pretending to give independence to Kurds. It was seen that they wanted to create a nation between Anatolia and Arabia to diverse them. It was declared that it wasn’t be accepted to give any of Anatolia. Aydın is moreover indivisible union of the nation.
Trouble in Thrace was that it was thought that it was aimed to create an ostensible independent government and make a colony, aiming to remove the east of Thrace to Midye- Enes line from us. But, it was thought suitable not to quit Edirne also Meriç border in any circumstances even if it would be thought to give them to an Islamic Government.
2- In the fourth item; Any privileges that can derange our political sovereignty and social balance shall not be granted for the Non-Muslim minorities.
