Topic 7.15
What differentiates the foreign policies of Woodrow Wilson from Franklin D Roosevelt?
Wilson sought a policy of neutrality during World War I until attacked directly; FDR provided material support to Allies before entering World War II under similar circumstances.
Neither president entered their respective world wars until direct attacks forced them into combat participation.
Both laid emphasis on creating international organizations to maintain peace post-war periods but only FDR succeeded with the United Nations'
Wilson favored isolationism throughout his presidency whereas FDR adopted interventionist strategies from the outset.
