The correct answer is A) He insisted on neautrality until the United States was provoked by German actions.

Wilson remained neutral for the beginning part of World War I, despite Germany sinking the Lusitania. However, this idea of neutrality all changed after the Zimmerman Telegram was intercepted.

The Zimmerman Telegram was supposed to be a secret telegram from the German government to the Mexican government. In this telegram, Germany wanted Mexico to invade the US to ensure that they would not get involved in World War I. In return for invading the US, Germany promised Mexico to get back the land that Mexico lost to the United States after the Mexican -American War.

However, this telegram was intercepted and read by the US government. After this, Wilson changed his policy of neutrality and declared war on Germany.
