Answer:

Victoriano Huerta

Step-by-step explanation:

President wilson had the united States invade and overthrow Victoriano Huerta given that the Mexican leader had not agreed to apologise for the Dolphin incident.

In this incident, United States sailors were detained in tampico as they made a trip to resupply dolphins. This made wilson to order that Veracruz is occupied. Both countries had poor diplomatic relationship.
