The correct answer is A) he favored a policy of neutrality.

Before Germany used unrestricted submarine warfare in 1917, Woodrow Wilson was in favor of a policy of neutrality toward the war in Europe.

President Woodrow Wilson considered that the United States should not intervene in European affairs. At first, he considered that World War 1 was not an American War. Indeed, in those years, American companies traded with European countries that were engaged in the war.

Everything changed after the United States intercepted the Zimmerman telegraph, where the Germans asked Mexico to help them and with the sink of the Lusitania ship, attacked by the German navy.

The United States entered World War 1 on April 6, 1917.
