Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

President Woodrow Wilson's belief in popular sovereignty led him to refuse recognition of Victoriano Huerta´s government, which was considered illegitimate. He also ordered an Arms Embargo and the invasion of Veracruz, where the most important Mexican port was located, presumably to help the Mexican Revolution by narrowing Huerta’s power and force him to resign.
