when did america declare war on germany in ww2?
11 december 1941
in the autumn of 1941, ribbentrop worked for the failure of the japanese-american talks in washington and for japan to attack the united states. in october 1941 ribbentrop ordered eugen ott, the german ambassador to japan, to start applying pressure on the japanese to attack the americans as soon as possible. ribbentrop argued to hitler that a war between the united states and germany was inevitable given the extent of american aid to britain and the increasingly frequent "incidents" in the north atlantic between u-boats and american warships guarding convoys to britain. he said that having such a war start with a japanese attack on the united states was the best way to begin it. ribbentrop told hitler that because of his four years in canada and the united states before 1914, he was an expert on all things american; he thought that the united states was not a serious military power. on 4 december 1941, the japanese ambassador general hiroshi ōshima told ribbentrop that japan was on the verge of war with the united states. in turn, ribbentrop promised that germany would join the war against the americans. on 7 december 1941, ribbentrop was jubilant at the news of the japanese attack on pearl harbor and did his utmost to support a declaration of war on the united states. he delivered the declaration to the american "chargé d'affaires" leland b. morris on 11 december 1941. in the winter and spring of 1942, following american entry into war, the united states successfully pressured all of the latin american states, except for argentina and chile, to declare war on germany. ribbentrop considered the acceptance of declarations of war from small states such as costa rica and ecuador to be deeply humiliating, and he refused to see any of the latin american ambassadors. he had weizsäcker accept their declarations of war instead.
