The U.S. did attempt negotiations with Japan before the outbreak of hostilities, but tensions escalated due to Japan's expansionist policies in Asia and its attack on China. The U.S. imposed economic sanctions and trade embargoes, particularly on oil, which Japan viewed as a threat to its national security. Ultimately, diplomatic efforts failed, leading to Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, which prompted the U.S. to enter World War II. The subsequent conflict focused on military objectives rather than diplomacy.
