It is known from the name and life style of Kazakh that they are a nation of Turkish origin. Kazakhs, who did not have a completely settled life, were attacking to borderlines of district states and plundering them. Because of this kind of life style of Kazakhs, one of the major issues among Ottoman, Poland and Moscow in the north part of the Black Sea is Kazakh issue. Relying on their power the Kazakhs were attacking to Ottoman, sometimes Poland and Russia borderlines and they were a threat for Sinop at the beginning of 17 th century. They allied with sultan's sons of Crimean, which were opponent to Ottoman Empire, fought against Ottoman Empire and won the war in 1584. Briefly, on one hand the district states were exposed to Kazakh attacks, on the other hand they exploited them for their national interests. Since it was recognized that if this situation had continued for a longer time it would disadvantageous for their own state, it was determined that the sides would prevent the Kazakh attacks and the criminals would be extradited in the treaties among Ottoman, Poland, Moscow and Crimean. In the long historical term the local communities were intermingled and shared a common fate. The prominent point, which emerged in this event, was the common fate of Ottoman and Ukraine. Ukraine was so important for Ottoman in the north, and as the same way Ottoman was important for Ukraine in the south. It is necessary to evaluate the Kazakh issue not only within their origin, ethnical identity, and banditry, but also within historical and geographical realities. Many of other nations have played important roles in the history of the district. The most important point in this event is the Kazakhs role in the relationship between Ottoman and Ukraine. So it will be more meaningful to take the issue up comprehensively. However, a long and common history between Ottoman and Ukraine has been lived. This history is our common history regardless of its good and bad aspects. The present and future of the relationship between Turkey and Ukraine should be constructed on this common history.
