the fourteen points plan called for the creation of a diplomatic organization known as the
Fourteen Points In the speech, Wilson directly addressed what he perceived as the causes for the world war by calling for the abolition of secret treaties, a reduction in armaments, an adjustment in colonial claims in the interests of both native peoples and colonists, and freedom of the seas.[1] Wilson also made proposals that would ensure world peace in the future. For example, he proposed the removal of economic barriers between nations, the promise of self-determination for national minorities,[1] and a world organization that would guarantee the "political independence and territorial integrity [of] great and small states alike"â€”a League of Nations.[4]
