Answer (2)

The Lend-Lease Act directly contradicted American isolationism during the start of WWII by allowing the U.S. to provide military aid to Allied nations. This marked a departure from a neutral stance, reflecting a shift towards support for countries fighting against Axis powers. Other options like the Cash and Carry Act maintained a more isolationist approach by requiring upfront payment and self-transportation for aid. ;
