Abraham Lincoln
Many British critics did not approve of the Emancipation Proclamation. They did not feel it was a good idea.

Because of the civil war.
Lincoln was president when the Civil War started and towards the end before he was assassinated, but it's not entirely accurate to say that Lincoln "started" the war. It was caused fundamentally by civil unrest between the north and south of the U.S. The secessionists fired the first shots, at Fort Sumter.
I don't know, what i do know is at the beginning Lincoln said he was fighting to save the union.
Lincoln went ashore at Rockett's Landing accompanied only by his young son Tad, and was instantly recognized, and word spread of his arrival almost instantaneously. Lincoln wanted directions to Jefferson Davis's house, the Confederate White House. Some of the black people began to kneel before him, as though worshiping. Lincoln was a modest man, and this probably touched a nerve as it could be seen as validating what critics had claimed of Lincoln during the war, that he craved such adulation and thought himself a demigod, and so on. So according to some he spoke with some sharpness when he is said to have told the black people kneeling before him to "kneel to God only, and thank him for the liberty you will hereafter enjoy."
There is no evidence to suggest that Abraham Lincoln blamed Harriet Beecher Stowe for starting the Civil War. Stowe's novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin" did contribute to shaping public opinion on slavery, but the Civil War was ultimately ignited by deep-rooted tensions over slavery and states' rights in the United States. Lincoln's leadership during the war focused on preserving the Union and ending slavery.
it was important to keep the border states in union
