Note stating attitude toward the war, April 11, 1917

Dr. Romulo S. Naon Ambassador from Argentine Republic, to Mr. Lansing, Secretary of State.

The Government of the Argentine Rupblic, in view of the causes that have prompted the United States of America to declare war on the Government of the German Empire, recognizes the justice of the decision, founded as it is upon the violation of the principles of the neutrality established by the rules of international law, which have been considered definite accomplishments of civilization.
