Charlie Townsend · Answer 2

France's war with Britain impact the U. S. repayment of Revolutionary War debts as repayment of debt to France would be considered a hostile act to Britain.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The United States repaying its debts to France would have been considered by Britain as the United States trying to reinforce and empower France against Britain.

Britain would have taken it as the alliance of the United States and France to rise against Britain once again. This union of France and the United States would have disturbed the contemporary political atmosphere.
