Abstract

The existence of Greeks in the region of the Eastern Black Sea had appeared by the colonies growing up from the seventh A.D. Greeks who formed the main component of the Oılhodox people (called Rum) joining with the other peoples of the region had emîgrated to Greece by the Exchange-Agreement that signed in 30 January 1923. However, the some groups who have try to reanimate the Great Idea have put forward the assertions that genocide of Rums is made at the beginning of tenth century and today there are Rum origin people in this region. So, they have been lookİng for the support at the international agenda.
