History
The Mixed Commission for the Exchange of Greek and Turkish Population, was established further to a bilateral convention, the Convention of Lausanne of 30 January 1923.
The history of the Mixed Commission for the Exchange of Greek and Turkish Population was different from the one of the Mixed Greco-Bulgarian Emigration Commission. The work of the Mixed Commission for the Exchange of Greek and Turkish Population lasted longer and was much more complex than the work of the Mixed Greco-Bulgarian Emigration Commission. Apart from the appointment of the president and of neutral members, the Mixed Commission for the Exchange of Greek and Turkish Population was independent from the League of Nations. The Mandatory delegates (depending on the Council of the League of Nations) were the neutral members of the Commission. They were responsible for the protection of these populations, which were excluded from the exchange planned in the Treaty of Lausanne and especially for the protection of the Albanian Muslim minority in Greece.
