Answer 1

The correct option is B X- Mustafa Kemal Pasha, Y- Soviet Union

The treaty with Turkey called the Treaty of Sevres was put forward to virtually abolish Turkey’s sovereignty. Even though this treaty was accepted by the Sultan, it failed due to the resistance of Mustafa Kemal Pasha, who later took the title Ataturk and became Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. He was a Turkish revolutionary statesman with a lot of followers. Kemal Pasha modernised Turkey and changed it completely by putting an end to the Sultanate and the Caliphate with the support of the Soviet Union.
