Based on tone and content, Sir Edward Gray and Kaiser Wilhelm II would both agree with the statement C) Europe faced a dangerous crisis.
Both Gray and Wilhelm II expressed concerns about the escalating tensions and potential conflict in Europe. In Gray's speech, he emphasizes the gravity of the situation, stating, "I have to state that the situation is very obscure, and the prospect very dark." Wilhelm II also acknowledges the dangerous crisis in his speech, stating, "Events have taken such a grave and rapid course that I have found it necessary to take emergency measures."
While Gray does not explicitly blame Germany for the war in his speech, Wilhelm II is more defensive and does not take responsibility for Germany's actions. Therefore, it is unlikely that both Gray and Wilhelm II would agree with statement A) Germany was to blame for the war or statement B) Great Britain was to blame for the war.
As for statement D) Peace could be easily achieved, this does not align with the tone and content of either speech. Both Gray and Wilhelm II recognize the seriousness of the crisis and do not suggest an easy resolution.
