How did the warring nations respond to President Wilson's call for a peace without victory?

The warring nations largely dismissed President Wilson's call for a "peace without victory" during World War I. Many leaders, particularly from the Allied Powers, were focused on achieving total victory and imposing punitive measures on the Central Powers. This response was driven by a desire for security and retribution, undermining Wilson's vision of a fair and just peace. Ultimately, the lack of acceptance for his proposal contributed to the prolongation of the conflict and the harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles.
