1912 Treaty Of Lausanne
Articles
Article 1, immediate and simultaneous cessation of hostilities.
Article 2, Turkey's immediate recall of officers, troops, and civil functionaries from Tripoli and Cyrenaica, this to be followed immediately by Italy's withdrawal from the Aegean Islands (the Dodecanese). (It is to be noted, that there is no formal recognition of any change in territorial sovereignty and that Italy has not withdrawn from the Islands.)
Article 3, immediate exchange of prisoners and hostages.
Article 4, mutual and full amnesty for all hostile acts, crimes at common law excepted.
Article 5, resumption of all treaties as before the war.
Article 6, an Italian engagement to conclude a treaty of commerce without the "capitulation" servitudes whenever the other powers do so.
Article 7, an Italian engagement to suppress Italian post offices in the Ottoman Empire whenever other powers do so.
Article 8, the signification of willingness on the part of Italy to lend support to the powers for the general suppression of the "capitulations" in the Ottoman Empire.
Article 9, a Turkish engagement to restore dismissed subjects of Italy to their administrative positions in the Empire without loss of retirement pension rights and a promise by Turkey to use her influence with nongovernmental institutions to act in a similar manner.
Article 10, an Italian pledge to pay into the Turkish treasury an annual sum equivalent to the average sums which for the three years previous to the war had been allocated for the use of the public debt to the two provinces; the amount to be determined by a commission of three -- one Turkish, one Italian, and a third chosen by the two. In case of failure to agree each State was to choose a power as mediator and the two powers thus designated were to select a, chief arbitrator. Italy was given the right to substitute for the annuity a sum corresponding to the amount capitalized at the rate of 4 per cent. (The commission fixed on 2,000,000 lire annually.)
