Summary/Abstract: This is an article about the emigration of the Turks and other Muslim population from PR/ SR of Macedonia in Republic of Turkey, after the Second World War. As it is known, the emigration of Turks, Albanians, Torbesh’s and Bosnjaks, from Yugoslavia/ Macedonia, to the Turkey, began in 1953, after the achievement of the appropriate agreement between Yugoslavia and Turkey. As a result of the flagrant abuse of the agreement, by the Yugoslav/ Macedonian authorities, emigration to Turkey was allowed not only to a small portion, as previously agreed upon, but rather to all Turkish and the rest of the Muslim population. Despite the claims of the then Yugoslav/ Macedonian authorities that the emigration was of free will, it was quite clear that “de facto” the emigration of the mentioned population was not a result of free choice.
