Answer:

For months, Britain's prime minister, Winston Churchill, had begged Roosevelt for help, but the president was committed to abiding by Americans' wishes to stay out of another bloody world war. The lend-lease program provided for military aid to any country whose defense was vital to the security of the United States.

Step-by-step explanation:

Roosevelt understood, though, that the best way to keep American troops out of World War II was to help the British and French defeat Hitler without us. That required money, munitions and equipment—foreign aid that was explicitly banned by the Neutrality Acts.

The explanation would also work as your answer, or both.Your choice.
