LAD # 32: Kellogg Briand Peace Pact

Summary:

This pact was in order to discuss the war as an instrument of national policy. Many countries signed this stating that they would not go to war with each other again. If this worked then it would solidify the peace between the countries and make for a better world atmosphere. Also, the hope was that using this treaty as an example other countries would follow in their footsteps and also come up with their own treaties for peace. These countries do not want war and want to find a different way to solve conflicts that come between them. It will be the duty of each government to respect this treaty and keep their promise.
