Respuesta :

"By invoking the act, the United States could abstain from participating directly in a foreign conflict" was the purpose of passing the Neutrality Act of 1935. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". I hope that the answer has come to your help.
The correct answer here is the option A.

Even though the United States emerged from the World War I stronger than it was, the people and the politicians still favored the policy of isolationism as opposed to taking a bigger role in the world politics. The Neutrality Act reflected this as it served as an excuse for the US not to get dragged into another conflict.
