LAD #6: Washington's Proclamation of Neutrality

Address and Summarize 
In April 1793, George Washington claimed that the United States will remain neutral during a war. The war he was specifically talking about was between Austria, Prussia, Sardinia, Great Britain  and United Netherlands vs. France. He states that if any citizen that is caught helping in any type of war effort will not be protected anymore by the United States. In addition  these people will be considered betrayers of their country and get punished under American laws.
