Letter A is the correct one.


Lincoln signed, On September 22, 1862, the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which informed both the Confederacy and the Union of his intention to free all persons held as slaves in the rebellious states. The five-page document declared that slaves in the rebel states were free, provided them with the support of the U.S. government—including the Army and Navy, declared that freed slaves should be paid a wage, urged freed slaves to abstain from violence except in self-defense, and publically declared that all suitable freed men would be accepted into the armed services to fight in the war.

The correct answer is a.

The <u>Proclamation of Emancipatio</u>n or Proclamation 95 was a presidential proclamation and an executive order issued by the president of the United States Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863. He amended the federal legal status of more than 3.5 million enslaved African-Americans in the designated areas of the south of slave, to free. As soon as a slave escaped the surveillance of the Confederate government, abandoning or through the advances of federal troops, the old slave was free.

What were the clinton administration's major international initiatives and interventions in the aftermath of the cold war?
Rudik [331]

The main focus of the Clinton administration after the cold war was to protect human rights. This was not as easy as expected; world leaders were challenged to balance human rights, economic interests, strategic interests, and lack of clear guidelines for humanitarian intervention overseas. These interests often conflicted and complicated response to international emergencies.

 

Consequently, Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) became progressively more important as they had the ability operate across borders with relative ease. NGOs became more and more involved in initiatives such as health care, woman’s rights, and other human rights.

 

Governments still retained their role of supplying military intervention when required, while international communities such as the United Nations (UN) took on the role of International Court on issues pertaining to abuse of human rights.
