The statements that could be considered one of the causes of World War II on either front are the following: Adolf Hitler brazenly disobeyed the Treaty of Versailles, the Great Depression fueled political unrest in some nations, and an embargo by the U.S. against Japan cut off its oil supply.

British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain had decided to support the foreign policy of appeasement to give Adolph Hitler what he wanted in order to avoid another bloody war such as World War 1. So for some time, this decision appeased Hitler but his ambition made him invade Poland in 1939, marking the beginning of World War II. US President Franklin D. Roosevelt had been maintaining the foreign policy of neutrality until the Pearl Harbor attack of December 1941. That is when he decided to ask Congress for a declaration of war.

Answer 2

Right answers are "Adolf Hitler brazenly disobeyed the Treaty of Versailles" and "An emabrgo by the U.S. against Japan cut off its oil supply."

Step-by-step explanation:

In Europe, Hitler and his government started to break the provisions of the Versailles Treaty after coming to power in 1933. Those provisions imposed limitations on the size of Germany´s armed forces and their types of weapons, especially on offensive weapons.

The U.S. embargo against the Japanese Empire put enormous pressure on its war effort in China and other parts of Asia. It spurred the invasion of areas rich in fuel resources. It is also considered as one of the factors leading to the Pearl Harbor attack.
