The text states that on December 8, President Roosevelt addressed a joint session of Congress and, via radio, the nation. So the intended audience of the primary source (his address) was the US Congress and the nation. The other options are incorrect: Japanese civilians were not the audience, the Allies in Europe were not the target here, and Roosevelt was the speaker, not the audience.
