Answer:
Explanation:
The British waited until they were certain that the message had prompted the United States to join the war.
Admiral William Hall was well aware that the German navy's decision to resume unrestricted submarine warfare late on January 31 had sparked fury in the United States. Hall was aware that the United States was on the verge of joining the war, so he waited until February 24 in the hopes that Arthur Zimmermann's telegraph would convince the United States to join the Allies. He displayed the telegram without exposing the fact that the British had cracked the German codes.
Zimmermann, Germany's Foreign Minister, had written a telegram to Count Von Bernstoff, Germany's envoy in Washington, with the goal of persuading Mexico to join Germany in the war.
