"The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is . . . to have with them as little political connection as possible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them be fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop." — George Washington's Farewell Address

According to this excerpt, George Washington wanted the United States to follow a foreign policy based on which principle?

expansion on the western border
⊝

freedom to trade around the world
⊝

non-involvement in European affairs
⊝

full support for British merchant policy

non-involvement in European affairs

Explanation:

George Washington was a devout advocate of non-involvement in the affairs of other countries especially European powers.

This is why even though the French monarchy supported the Americans in gaining independence from the British, when they were overthrown in the French Revolution, the Americans under Washington did not get involved.

Washington thought it best to stay away from long term engagements with other nations and to maintain neutrality such that the best policy can be objectively followed.
