Introduction
This paper will examine US foreign policy from 1890 to 1991, focusing on the efficacy of the US in promoting people's right to self-determination. It will also be explored in the light of three incidents that unfolded before to 1939. Along with a discussion of the case, it will be discussed how the US aided or hindered a country's capacity to "create its own destiny." Ultimately, it will be decided if supporting people's freedom to self-determination is a substantial component.

The right to self-determination has never been properly defined and various peoples and governments interpret it differently at different periods. One of the biggest issues the US and the international community confront in reacting to claims for self-determination and dealing with separatist movements is the lack of a clear and widely acknowledged definition.
Alternative manifestations of Self-Determination other than secession, it was proposed, should be examined (Burak and Eymirliolu). The purpose of this study is to look at how the United States and the international community may work together to achieve successful outcomes to territorial or separatist issues, with "successful" defined generally as nonviolent and no secessionist.
Self-determination and secession are "abundant difficulties" for governments throughout the world as they pick, which peoples to support. The politics of these circumstances weigh heavily on the entire international community since there are no clear norms governing self-determination movements.
A set of techniques for approaching the issue that take into consideration the moral component that reflects beliefs strongly established in American heritage might be developed (Burak and Eymirliolu). Stability and security are also important considerations, as is the degree to which, plurality is valued.
Evidence of Events
Event 1: A Kurdish Nation-State
Without a separate state, the Kurds are the world's biggest unique nationality group. Kurdish is an Iranian language linked to Persian, unlike the native languages of two of those nations (Turkey and Iraq). Since 1923, Turkey's 12 to 14 million Kurds have been a contentious topic (Varoglu).
The Turkish government has aggressively encouraged "assimilation" of the Kurdish minority by repressing Kurdish language and other displays of cultural individuality. It was likely to be more tempting, for the US to overlook the dispute during the Cold War, when Turkey's position made it a crucial American ally (Musioł).
Kurds have always found themselves on the perimeter of numerous Ottoman and Iranian empires, where they have been split. They speak a...
