Armenian bid for national home at conference controversy
Noradunghian Pasha, once Turkish foreign minister, urged a Armenian national home with possible autonomous status under Turkish rule or foreign guarantees. Turks refuse attendance, proposing Armenians seek redress before Turkey. Montgomery supports a southeastern Sicily autonomous state under League oversight and cites refugee needs and promises. Estimates place Armenians in Erivan and the region at risk amid possible Russian influence. The appeal requests territorial carve‑out and protection for orphans and refugees with funds suggested at about 250000 dollars.
