Military alliance with Britain

Answer 1

Prior to Pearl Harbor, the primary U.S. policy toward the war in Europe was "Cash and carry." This policy allowed countries at war to purchase arms and supplies from the U.S. as long as they paid in cash and transported the goods themselves. This approach was part of the broader Neutrality Acts aimed at keeping the U.S. out of the conflict while still supporting allies like Britain and France.
