The correct answer is letter B

In 1918 the democratic President Woodrow Wilson of the United States presented his Fourteen Point program to end World War I (1914-1918) . Wilson's proposal systematized his ideas already made public in April 1917, before the United States went to war. He advocated a "peace without winners or losers" that would guarantee "making the world safe for democracy". He said that if the great nations' self-determination were the basis for peace, then that would be the last conflict, "a war to end all wars".
