the correct answer is D
to give Britain the American aid it needed but could not pay for
as the war continued, Churchill warned that Great Britain could no longer afford to pay its debt. While the American public was not ready for the war, Roosevelt felt there was a need for a decisive American participation in the war and thus he used, though tactfully, the lend lease to support the allies, against the Nazis Germany.
