Summary/Abstract: Truman doctrine, which was proposed by England and which specifies a foreign aid for Turkey and Greece after the World War II has been investigated in this study. After the War, an aid cake called Truman Doctrine had been offered to Turkey which remained impartial and out of the War. The processes of demanding, receiving and using this aid which has resulted, until now, in the habitualization, or even an addiction, of offering, approving and using loans constitute the focus of this study. The main goal in analyzing this aid named after President Truman is to reach objective conclusions by means of investigating events through historical perspective and reliability and drawing associations with Turkey’s recent past. For this purpose, the suggestion of this aid and how it was perceived by the Americans as well as the Turks have been negotiated along with events and documents presented. The developments have been assessed with utmost objectivity and reasoning. Also, a viewpoint on the impact and results of this aid concerning Turkey has been offered.
