Answer:

Lafayette might have seen the extent to which slavery was practiced.

Explanation:

Marquis de Lafayette was a French military officer who commanded American troops during the America Revolutionary War, and returned back to France after the war.

On the invitation of President James Monroe and the United States Congress, Lafayette came back to the United States in 1824 to celebrate its upcoming 50th anniversary. During his visit, he was dissatisfied and disappointed when he found out that slavery existed in the parts of America that he visited; sights of slavery would have impelled him to make the statement.

Which of the following is a true statement about George H. W. Bush?
velikii [3]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) He trusted Gorbachev more than Regan did.

Explanation:

All other Statements are false. He did not serve as Reagan's secretary of State and was in fact the Vice President with him for 8 years.

He also had a lot of experience in foreign affairs. He finally became President in 1989 and served until 1993 until losing the election to Bill Clinton.

However, he did have a great relationship with Soviet Union's Gorbachev and trusted him more than Ronald Reagan. He was instrumental in negotiating a closer relationship between the Soviets and Americans, especially after the collapse of communism.
