Explanation:

During the war between France and Britain in the 1790s, President George Washington sought to avoid entanglement in European conflicts to protect the young United States. He issued the Proclamation of Neutrality in 1793, formalizing the nation's neutral stance. The other options are incorrect: the U.S. did not attack Spanish Florida at this time, and Washington did not openly support either Britain or France.

Answer:

He declared that the United States would be neutral.
