Which statement best describes a result of the Battle of Gettysburg?

The Union victory at Gettysburg in July 1863 ended the Confederacy’s major invasion of the North and weakened its hopes of winning foreign support. European powers, especially Britain and France, did not recognize the Confederacy as an independent nation. Gettysburg was a defeat for Confederate forces, so it did not deal the Union a powerful blow or make the Confederacy more confident of victory.
