第一次世界大战初期,为了保护中立国的贸易,美国提议各交战国接受伦敦宣言。由于宣言的条款不利于英国开展经济战,英国表示在“修改和增加”的基础上接受伦敦宣言。美国则认为这不利于中立国的贸易。于是,两国之间展开了关于伦敦宣言的争议。 In the early days of World War I, in order to protect the trade of neutral countries, the United States proposed that all belligerents accept the London Declaration. As the terms of the declaration are not conducive to the economic war in the United Kingdom, Britain said it accepted the London declaration on the basis of “amendment and increase.” The United States believes that this is detrimental to the trade of the neutral countries. As a result, the two countries started a dispute over the London Declaration.
