The Fourteen Points (1918) were a series of proposals, principles, and measures designed by the American President Wilson in order to bring peace and justice to all nations after all the violence from WWI.
Under this aim, some of the proposals of the plan were to eliminate the general causes of the war, and since Wilson believed that international trade barriers had been one of them, he advocated for the removal of economic barriers among nations, as he stated on the third point:
"The removal, so far as possible, of all economic barriers and the establishment of an equality of trade conditions among all the nations consenting to the peace and associating themselves for its maintenance."
