President Woodrow Wilson's concept of neutrality during World War I emphasized the United States' intention to remain impartial and uninvolved in the conflict between European powers. He believed that America should avoid entanglement in foreign wars and focus on promoting peace and diplomacy instead. Wilson's neutrality aimed to protect American interests and uphold democratic values, but it ultimately evolved as the war progressed, leading to U.S. involvement in 1917.

Policy of neutrality/ American neutrality
At the beginning of World War I in 1914, the President of the United States was Woodrow Wilson. He served as the 28th president from 1913 to 1921. Wilson initially maintained a policy of neutrality as the war began, but eventually led the U.S. into the conflict in 1917.
President Woodrow Wilson initially favored neutrality and staying out of World War I, but shifted his stance when German actions threatened American lives and interests. He advocated for entering the war to make the world "safe for democracy" and promote peace through the creation of the League of Nations. Wilson's principles clashed with isolationist sentiments in the US, leading to debates over America's role in global affairs.
