It seems that your question is focused on Woodrow Wilson's principles of self-determination in relation to various empires. Among the provided statements, there is no indication that one specific statement is "right" as they all seemingly assert the same right for different empires. However, an important point to consider is that Wilson’s emphasis on national self-determination was more pronounced regarding the empires involved in World War I, particularly the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman empires, where many diverse ethnic groups sought independence.

Wilson's ideas were aimed more at the context of the time, particularly regarding the rights of nations and ethnic groups to determine their own futures as national entities. Therefore, while all statements affirm the concept of self-determination, Wilson's principles would most closely align with adequately addressing the aspirations of those under the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman Empires.

If you need to choose one that most closely connects his intentions of imperialist rule with national self-determination, the statement about the Austro-Hungarian Empire could be highlighted as it was directly relevant to Wilson's post-war vision for Europe.
