[Link] Ottoman Empire chose “infidels” as slaves. All societies have engaged in slave trading. If repatriations are to be made all societies should pay.

The slavery structures differed (racialized chattel in the US vs. diverse forms of servitude with some have more freedom). Turkey’s avoidance stems from lack of unified claimants, since victims came from multiple countries (e.g., Balkan Christians, Circassians, Africans). [Link] [Link]

There was no slavery after the abolotion of slavery or discrimination in Ottoman. That has never been the case in Ottomans or Turkiye. The first black fighter pilot in history is Ahmet Ali Çelikten who fought in WORLD WAR I. He was an officer pilot in Ottoman Air Force. [Link]
