The Zimmermann Note was first suspected of being a forgery by the British, to make the Americans think that Germany wanted to cause war for the USA, and thus pushing the Americans to help the British. However, while the USA government officials were still debating whether this was a genuine note, the German Foreign Secretary, Arthur Zimmermann himself, admitted the note was genuine.

The theme chosen was "change in the main agreements built in the Versailles Treaty"
Explanation:
Gentlemen, when reading and analyzing the provisions established in the Treaty of Versailles, I felt the need to bring them together so that together we can discuss these provisions so that we can foresee possible harmful consequences for us and for all nations in the world.
Although Germany was one of the main culprits for the establishment of the war that caused us so much harm, I am afraid that the treaty established, will reinforce resentful feelings in the German population, regarding the difficulties that the treaty impose in the recovery of this region.
I fear that these feelings will trigger political and social movements that will stimulate a population revolt that results in yet another conflict to which we will be involved.
With that, I propose that some points of the Versailles Treaty be modified and that the punishments for Germany be milder in some ways. I do not ask for Germany to be pardoned, but for the treaty to propose punishments that allow the population to recover and have a dignified life, because despite the regrets, we are all human beings and in addition to paying for our mistakes, we must be able to maintain our dignity.
