After World War I, Germany's primary foreign policy goal was to engage the United States, whose assistance was seen as essential for the economic and diplomatic rehabilitation of Germany. America recognized that the rehabilitation of Germany was necessary for its long range goal of aiding peaceful European reconstruction through private loans and investments. Having failed to ratify the Treaty of Versailles, America had to establish bilateral relations with Germany. However the complex interplay of domestic and international politics in each nation resulted in a relationship which proceeded in a series of steps characterized by expediency imposed by the domestic politics of the United States. Following this pattern were the Treaty of Berlin of 1921 (which established a separate peace with Germany), the Mixed Claims Agreement of 1922 (which was created to resolve war claims), and the Commercial Treaty of 1924. |
