Turkey negotiated about it. They fought a war agaisnt ottomans England France Italy and Greece and won. Well saying a war agaisnt England France and Italy is a little unfair. England never sent any troops and only aided greeks, French got blasted by the turkish milita and left and Italy was angry over izmir so they pretty much just left.

i love how greeks blamed england when it was their own command being retarded sending their army all the way into anatolia just to get btfo by attaturk

The Greeks, even with the help of the Brits, couldn't capture Constantinople, the Turks won it fair and square

It's especially ironic, considering that England won Greece's independence in the first place.
