Question

There is no comparison between the importance of the German navy to Germany and the importance of our navy to us...it is not a matter of life and death to them as it is to us’. Why did the British Foreign Secretary believe this about the navies of Britain and Germany?

Answer 1

British foreign secretary saw that both Germany and Britain were driven by similar agenda, to become a world power in which both of these nations had actively contributed to conflict due to their ambitions. Hence, both countries consist of similar traits and have caused so much pain in society to gain global recognition and dream of their countries taking a bigger role. Britain and Germany have been at war, especially their naval buildup, to conquer each other and show superiority, which threatens the lives of the population.
