The policy that Neville Chamberlain and Winston Churchill disagreed upon is known as **appeasement**. Chamberlain's approach, as exemplified by his quote, reflects his belief in making concessions to Germany in order to maintain peace, whereas Churchill's statement indicates his criticism of that strategy, arguing that it would ultimately lead to greater disaster and conflict.
