2) (Context) Why did Channon claim appeasement was the right policy? What, if any, evidence did he use to back this claim?

Channon claimed that appeasement was the right policy based on the belief that it could prevent another devastating world war. He argued that accommodating the demands of aggressive nations, particularly Nazi Germany, would avoid conflict and maintain peace. Channon pointed to the harsh conditions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles after World War I as a contributing factor to the rise of Hitler and believed that appeasement could rectify those grievances.Channon's evidence for supporting appeasement included the desire to avoid a repeat of the destructive conflict of World War I and the belief that diplomatic concessions could address the legitimate concerns of nations, fostering stability. However, history later demonstrated that appeasement failed to prevent World War II, as Hitler continued to expand aggressively despite concessions.
