Did George Washington agree with the proclamation of 1763?

George Washington had mixed feelings about the Proclamation of 1763. While he understood the British government's intent to stabilize relations with Native Americans by limiting colonial expansion westward, he personally favored westward expansion and land acquisition. Washington's experiences as a land speculator and his ambitions for growth in the Ohio Valley led him to oppose the restrictions imposed by the Proclamation. Ultimately, he viewed the Proclamation as an obstacle to colonial development and economic opportunity.
