George Washington’s Farewell Address gave a strong message about foreign policy. What was it? How did John Adams and Thomas Jefferson address foreign policy in their administrations? Describe key foreign policy events or positions of the Adams and Jefferson administrations

Respuesta :

It basically said: Don't get mixed in with foreign affairs. The Atlantic ocean is a godsend that kept us out of Europe's many wars. Don't make long-term alliances like we did with the french.

Answer:  The correct answer is : His farewell speech referred to a very careful foreign policy, trying to maintain a neutral friendship, so as not to give way to dangerous enemies with little value. Also prevent the United States from forming foreign alliances. He spoke of the need to remain united through a general government so that this union is permanent and effective, without allowing other countries to try to interfere with peace and tranquility as happened to neighboring nations that did not stay together.

John Adams when he came to the presidency Great Britain and France were at war but he knew he had to protect Washington and be away from the Franco-British war. Adams rebuilt the navy and added six powerful frigates, the congress increased taxes to pay for this.

Thomas Jefferson signed the Law of Seizure and the Law of Non-Exchange that prohibited trade with Britain and France that were in conflict. This was so that the United States would remain neutral in this war. With this measure the United States stagnated a bit its economy.
