Benevolent neutrality
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Benevolent neutrality" is a term used by Ernest May to describe United States foreign policy regarding involvement in World War I. It is distinct from strict neutrality because America had some favorable policies towards the Allies; for example, generally favorable trade decisions. This was accentuated by the better availability of information about the Allies, and the pre-existing state of public opinion.
Eventually, benevolent neutrality favored the Allies even more, allowing them loans and arms.
