London regards President Wilson’s reply to the German chancellor as a clever diplomatic move. The public believes the German leaders face pressure to accept Wilson’s 14 terms and evacuate occupied territory. Observers question whether the chancellor speaks for the people or the war lords, and even British pacifists back the demand for evacuation before any armistice.
