Question 16 • US History Studies Since 1877

How did European leaders respond to President Wilson’s Fourteen Points at the signing of the Treaty of Versailles?

Answer
A
European leaders included Wilson in their secret treaties.
B
European leaders rejected most of Wilson’s points immediately.
C
European leaders allowed Wilson to shape the peace agreements.
D
European leaders accepted most of Wilson’s points immediately.

Explanation

At the Paris Peace Conference, European leaders prioritized their own national interests, including security and territorial gains, over many of Wilson’s proposals. The Treaty of Versailles did include the League of Nations, but it did not adopt most of the Fourteen Points, so “rejected most of Wilson’s points immediately” is the best answer.
