85. 14 Points?
Wilson's 14 points
1 Open covenants of peace, openly arrived at, after which there shall be no private international understandings of any kind but diplomacy shall
proceed always frankly and in the public view. (Peace will be maintained by having open diplomacy and no secret treaties).
2 Absolute freedom of navigation upon the seas, outside territorial waters, alike in peace and in war, except as the seas may be closed in whole or in
part by international action for the enforcement of international covenants. (Keep the seas free. One of the reasons that America joined the war was
because of German attacks on American shipping).
3 The removal, so far as possible, of all economic barriers and the establishment of an equality of trade conditions among all the nations consenting
to the peace and associating themselves for its maintenance. (Free trade).
4 Adequate guarantees given and taken that national armaments will be reduced to the lowest point consistent with domestic safety. (World
disarmament).
5 A free, open-minded and absolutely impartial adjustment of all colonial claims, based upon a strict observance of the principle that in determining all
such questions of sovereignty the interests of the populations concerned must have equal weight with the equitable claims of the government whose
title is to be determined.
(Self-determination).
6 The evacuation of all Russian territory and such a settlement of all questions affecting Russia as will secure the best and freest cooperation of the
other nations of the world in obtaining for her an unhampered and unembarrassed opportunity for the independent determination of her own political
development and national policy and assure her of a sincere welcome into the society of free nations under institutions of her own choosing; and,
more than a welcome, assistance also of every kind that she may need and may herself desire. The treatment accorded Russia by her sister nations
in the months to come will be the acid test of their goodwill, of their comprehension of her needs as distinguished from their own interests, and of their
intelligent and unselfish sympathy. (Self-determination).
7 Belgium, the whole world will agree, must be evacuated and restored, without any attempt to limit the sovereignty which she enjoys in common with
all other free nations. No other single act will serve as this will serve to restore confidence among the nations in the laws which they have themselves
set and determined for the government of their relations with one another. Without this healing act the whole structure and validity of international law
is forever impaired. (Self-determination).
Wilson's 14 points ...continued...
8 All French territory should be freed and the invaded portions restored, and the wrong done to France by Prussia in 1871 in the matter of Alsace-
Lorraine, which has unsettled the peace of the world for nearly fifty years, should be righted, in order that peace may once more be made secure in
the interest of all. (Self-determination).
9 A readjustment of the frontiers of Italy should be effected along clearly recognisable lines of nationality. (Self-determination).
10 The peoples of Austria-Hungary, whose place among the nations we wish to see safeguarded and assured, should be accorded the freest
opportunity to autonomous development. (Self-determination).
11 Rumania, Serbia and Montenegro should be evacuated; occupied territories restored; Serbia accorded free and secure access to the sea; and the
relations of the several Balkan states to one another determined by friendly counsel along historically established lines of allegiance and nationality;
and international guarantees of the political and economic independence and territorial integrity of the several Balkan states should be entered into.
(Self-determination).
12 The Turkish portion of the present Ottoman Empire should be assured a secure sovereignty, but the other nationalities which are now under
Turkish rule should be assured an undoubted security of life and an absolutely unmolested opportunity of autonomous development, and the
Dardanelles should be permanently opened as a free passage to the ships and commerce of all nations under international guarantees.
(Self-determination).
13 An independent Polish state should be erected which should include the territories inhabited by indisputably Polish populations, which should be
assured a free and secure access to the sea, and whose political and economic independence and territorial integrity should be guaranteed by
international covenant. (Self-determination).
14 A general association of nations must be formed under specific covenants for the purpose of affording mutual guarantees of political
independence and territorial integrity to great and small states alike. (The formation of a League of Nations).
