Behiç Erkin
Behiç Erkin (1876 in Constantinople,〔Caroline Finkel, ''Osman's Dream'', (Basic Books, 2005), 57; "''The city's Byzantine name, rendered in Turkish as Konstantiniyye...''","''Istanbul was only adopted as the city's official name in 1930..''".〕 Ottoman Empire-November 11, 1961 in Istanbul, Turkey) was a career Army officer; first director (1920–1926) of the Turkish State Railways, nationalized under his auspices; and statesman with the Turkish government who helped save almost 20,000 ethnic Jews in France during World War II. He was Minister of Public Works, 1926–1928, and deputy for three terms; and an ambassador. He served as Turkey's ambassador to Budapest between 1928–1939, and to Paris and Vichy between August 1939-August 1943. As Turkish ambassador in France under the German Occupation after June 1940, Erkin used the power of his office and nation's neutrality to save Jews who could document a Turkish connection, however slight, from the Holocaust.
Other Turkish diplomats in France and elsewhere, were also active in this rescue effort. The consulate staff under Necdet Kent in Marseille was particularly involved.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Turkey )〕
