<u>Answer:</u>
The debate about granting the Philippines independence almost prevented the Treaty of Paris from being ratified.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
- Amidst the engagements being carried out for the accomplishment of the 'Treaty of Paris', the Congress was deliberately discussing over the issue of granting the Philippines independence.
- There was a hot debate going on as the 'Treaty of Paris' included certain clauses that pertained to the US government paying $20 million to Spain for ceding the Philippines to US.
- If the United States would have paid Spain the predetermined amount of compensation, granting 'independence to the Philippines' would have become more difficult.
