Answer:
America declared war on the empire of Japan because of the surprise attack Japan did on pearl harbour in the very prior day.
Explanation:
Japan informed the united stated about their withdrawal from the further peace negotiations during the world war II. They transmitted the message to Washington to their embassy.
But due to the very long and secretive nature of the message it couldn’t get decoded in the available time hence it slowed down the process of delivering the same to the US secretary of state until the after the pearl harbor attack by Japan. In response to the sudden attack America declared war on Japan.
