Read the following excerpt from a speech made by a national leader during wartime:

It has been a long road, and I would not say this were it not
true that we had exhausted all possible alternatives. But
the threat is growing in the eastern front as well as in the
western front, and our military capacity is simply not
enough to avoid being overwhelmed. We have therefore
agreed to come to peace terms with our enemy. A sad day,
to be sure, but one that will be only a footnote in our long
and glorious history as a nation.

Which is one likely purpose of the speech, based on the excerpt above?

A. To surrender to the enemy

B. To explain a difficult decision

C. To chastise those who dissent

D. To persuade citizens to sacrifice more
