In this article, the meeting of the Soviet Union Deputy People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs Vladimir Petrovich Potemkin with President İsmet İnönü on November 23, 1938 is evaluated within the framework of Turkish-Soviet relations after Montreux. Potemkin, who was appointed as the head of the Soviet Union delegation by Moscow for the funeral of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk on November 21, 1938, stayed in Turkey for a while after the funeral. Within this period Potemkin had a long meeting with İsmet İnönü, with the participation of Turkish Foreign Minister Şükrü Saraçoğlu and the Ambassador of the Soviet Union to Ankara Aleksey Terentyev. During the meeting, issues that occupied Turkish-Soviet relations in the post-Montreux period, such as Turkey's relations with Germany and England and the issue of a new mutual assistance pact, were discussed. The meeting became a subject of great curiosity in the eyes of the international public and foreign missions and was interpreted as a return to the old intimacy in Turkish-Soviet relations. In this article, the details of the meeting between Inonu and Potemkin dated November 23, 1938, which is mentioned in the literature but no information about its content has been found, has been tried to be revealed within the framework of the Turkish Diplomatic Archive, the British National Archive and the German and Soviet archive documents published in English. As a result of the study, it was concluded that it is not correct to evaluate the meeting between İnönü and Potemkin as a diplomatic initiative that reestablishes the old sincerity in Turkish-Soviet relations and there was no sudden and dramatic change in relations after the death of Atatürk.
