Click on image to zoom in
The German government expresses its belief that a second Hague Peace Conference would not be entirely successful. They believe too many parties would be involved in the creation of a successful agenda in which agreements for treaties and arbitration of international disputes would be best negotiated. The German government prefers that the United States take the lead in setting an agenda, with the input from the other members of the conference, but acting as the primary leader.
