The 1960 Treaty of Guarantee was a pact designed to preserve the territorial independence of the Republic of Cyprus. The guarantor powers ( Great Britain, Turkey, and Greece) promised not to seek annexation or partition of Cyprus, and to assist their communities on Cyprus in the event of major clashes between the Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots. It was the attempted July 1974 Greek-backed coup d'etat that made Turkey intervene militarily, arguing that the Treaty of Guarantee made their intervention fully legal. Critics counter that only the first stage of the intervention - the initial landings - is covered by the treaty. The second stage of the intervention - the occupation of 37% of the island - however, was condemned by UN Security Council resolutions. Turkey counters that the Turkish Cypriot community would always be threatened and thus their continued presence on Cyprus as a protector of the Turkish Cypriot community is in line with their status as a guarantor power under the treaty, even though Turkey withdrew its recognition of the Republic of Cyprus after the death of President Makarios III in 1977. ...more on Wikipedia about "1960 Treaty of Guarantee"

At the same time, the United Kingdom agreed to withdraw its navy from the Baltic Sea completely, making Germany the dominant power in the Baltic. Adolf Hitler himself was privately ecstatic at the agreement, saying, "Great Britain has in fact renounced her naval influence in the Baltic, a bottle that we Germans can close. The English cannot exercise any control there. We are the masters of the Baltic." Even the Times of London reported that the "German Fleet will now be in unchallenged control of the Baltic. Every new unit added to the German fleet makes Sweden's (and the rest of the Baltic nations) position so much worse...Even before 1914 our position was better, as then the Russian and German fleets about balanced." ...more on Wikipedia about "Anglo-German Naval Agreement"

The Treaty of Commerce and Navigation (日英通商航海条約 Nichi-Ei Tsūshō Kōkai Jōyaku) signed between Britain and Japan on July 16 1894 was a major landmark treaty which heralded the end of the unequal treaties and the system of extraterritoriality in Japan exactly five years later. With effect from July 17 1899, British nationals in Japan were subject to Japanese laws and courts, instead of British laws and consular courts. Other countries soon followed suit and the system of separate laws which governed all the foreigners who were obliged to reside in the treaty ports was thus abolished. ...more on Wikipedia about "Anglo-Japanese Treaty of Commerce and Navigation"

The Balkan Pact was a treaty signed by Greece, Turkey, Romania, and Yugoslavia in 1934. The signatories agreed to suspend all disputed territorial claims against each other and their immediate neighbors following the aftermath of the First World War and a rise in various regional ethnic minority tensions. Other nations in the region that had been involved in related diplomacy refused to sign the document, including Italy, Albania, Bulgaria, Hungary, and the Soviet Union. Nonsignatories were mostly those governments with territorial expansion in mind.
