Read the excerpt from President Woodrow Wilson’s speech, “War Message to Congress.”

It is a war against all nations. American ships have been sunk, American lives taken, in ways which it has stirred us very deeply to learn of, but the ships and people of other neutral and friendly nations have been sunk and overwhelmed in the waters in the same way. There has been no discrimination.

a.sadness
b.pity
c.trust
d.remorse

Guilt as well as self-directed anger are intimately linked to regret. Thus, from the above we can conclude that the above statement depicts remorse.
