Answer: Loss of control
Explanation:
Self-determination refers to the rights of people to choose their own governments and political process without another country interfering in this. It is a mark of independence for a country.
The Ottoman empire did not want its territories to have this because it wanted to maintain control over them. If these territories were allowed to have self-determination, they would then begin to push for complete independence because they would have tasted a small amount of independence and would not rest until they became fully independent.
