James Madison broke Washington's foreign policy of neutrality by supporting the War of 1812 against Britain. While Washington had emphasized avoiding entanglement in foreign conflicts, Madison believed that British interference with American shipping and support for Native American attacks justified military action. His decision to declare war in 1812 marked a significant shift from the earlier stance of non-involvement in foreign wars, reflecting a more assertive approach to defending American interests.
