Introduction to Zimmerman Telegram
The Zimmerman Telegram is the telegram which was sent to Mexican government on January 16, 1917 during the First World War by Arthur Zimmermann. He was one of the foreign escritoires of the German territory. The telegram projected that Mexican government should act as a helper to the Germans forces if the United States get involved in the first world war. The telegram also said that if the Mexican command launched a defensive strike against the U.S, they would get the help of Germany. If they win this war, the Germans also promise Mexican command that they would get New Mexico, Arizona and Texas if they are going to win the First World War. This telegram also suggested that the Mexican has to convince Japanese forces to go against the American.
