Explanation

Wilson called for freedom of the seas, so countries should be able to travel at sea without restrictions. He also said colonial claims should take the interests of the people living in the colonies into account, giving them a say in their governments. Finally, he proposed a League of Nations, an international organization to help preserve peace. He opposed secret treaties, and his Fourteen Points did not call for punishing Germany.
