B. Avoid siding with either nation, is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The American Revolution had sparked revolutions across the world. The French revolutionaries also approached George Washington for assistance because France had been US's major ally during the Revolutionary war. Instead of helping the French revolutionaries George Washington decided to issue the proclamation of Neutrality because of the debt that US had to take for the American revolution. <u><em>So during his Farewell address he advocated to refrain from getting involved in the affairs of France and Britain and isolate itself from involvement in international affairs.</em></u>
