The correct answer is C) America should steer clear of foreign alliances when it has the liberty to do so.
The option that best describes Washington’s position on foreign alliances is: "America should steer clear of foreign alliances when it has the liberty to do so."
This topic was covered by President George Washington during his farewell address letter of September 1796. In his letter, he comments on the dangers for the United States of establishing foreign alliances with other nations. He thought these alliances created compromises and divisions within the country. On one hand, they were risky for the intentions of the other nations, and on the other hand, it creates separation in the interior as happened during the armed conflicts between France and England, in which Federalists like Alexander Hamilton supported the British and antifederalists like Thomas Jefferson supported France.
