An end to impressment.
Great Britain reacted to the proclamation of American neutrality in 1793 with skepticism and concern. They viewed the U.S. neutrality as potentially beneficial to France during the ongoing war between Britain and revolutionary France, which could undermine British interests. Consequently, Britain sought to assert its naval dominance, leading to the impressment of American sailors and the seizure of American ships, further straining relations between the two nations. This tension ultimately contributed to the War of 1812.
Jefferson instituted the embargo of 1807 in response to the impressment of American sailors by Britain. Outraged, Americans called for a war with Britain. The embargo was enacted as a chastisement of Britain and France to force them to respect American neutrality, cease impressment and end the attacks on American ships. The result, however, was an economic disaster for the United States, which resulted in great wins by the opposing Federalist party.
China was also involved and became known as the "Big Four" meeting.

Impressment was the practice of forcibly recruiting sailors into the military service, particularly by the British Navy during the early 19th century. It became a significant issue between the U.S. and Great Britain because British forces would often seize American sailors, claiming they were British deserters. This violation of American sovereignty and individual rights fueled tensions, contributing to the War of 1812, as the U.S. sought to assert its independence and protect its citizens from foreign interference. The issue highlighted broader conflicts over trade, maritime rights, and national identity.

Jefferson and Madison first responded to impressment with neutrality. He wanted to keep America as neutral as possible in the midst of conflict between Great Britain and France. His solution was a commercial attack, rather than a military one: the Embargo Act.
