Papers of founder's ex-wife to stay sealed
By Nicholas Birch
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Published February 14, 2005
ISTANBUL -- Public pressure has blocked the publication of the private
papers of a former wife of
Kemal Ataturk, the revered founder of modern Turkey whose personal
shortcomings might have come to
light as never before.
The papers, hidden away in the vaults of the Turkish History Foundation
for the past quarter-century,
had been expected to expose disturbing truths about a near-mythic
figure with a penchant for late-night
drinking sessions with his friends.
