appeasement
The policy is referred to as 'Appeasement'.
The policy that France and Britain pursued against aggressive nations during the 1930s is known as appeasement. It is a policy of granting concessions to a potential enemy in the hope that it will maintain peace.
Giving in to an aggressor would just give them the mentality of, "Well if they just let me have this, then I can just take more and more of whatever I want." This is the same thing that happened with Hitler, we gave him control of a country that he broke a treaty to obtain, making him promise that he wouldn't do it again. This didn't happen, and so started WWII.
Appeasement is a diplomatic/political policy whereby one nation or set of nations "appeases" another (or several others) by giving in to demands or even actions of some kind. Appeasement was enacted quite famously in the 1930s by the British and French governments, as they gave in to German demands and actions alike without any hostile reaction, sometimes even with formal approval.
The British remembered how terrible WW I was, and they desperately wanted to avoid another such terrible war. They believed, incorrectly, that if they made concessions to Hitler he would be satisfied and would not attack them.

Granting concessions as a policy to maintain peace can involve making strategic compromises or offering incentives to address grievances and alleviate tensions. It can be a tool for de-escalation and conflict resolution by showing willingness to address concerns and find mutually acceptable solutions. However, careful consideration is needed to ensure that concessions do not undermine fundamental principles or embolden aggressors.
