Answer 2

The correct answer is A) he wanted to sign the peace settlement.

In asking Congress to declare war, Wilson said, “The world must be made safe for democracy.” This statement suggests that Wilson wanted to go to war because he wanted to sign the peace settlement.

President Woodrow Wilson wanted to maintain the neutrality policy to not intervene in European issues and stayed away from the war until the US Army intercepted the Zimmerman telegraph in which Germany asked Mexico for help in the war. Furthermore, the sinking of the Lusitania Ship by the German navy made the US enter World War 1 on April 6, 1917.

On November 11, 1918, the Allies Forces had won the War. The Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire) surrendered. President Wilson wanted a peace treaty based on justice, not bitterness or revenge, President Wilson wanted a treaty that guaranteed a long-lasting peace.
