Why did Chamberlain on his return from Munich in 1938 say and lsquoI believe it is peace for our time and rsquo?

Upon his return from the Munich Agreement in 1938, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain declared, "I believe it is peace for our time," as he aimed to reassure the British public that the agreement with Adolf Hitler had averted the threat of war in Europe. Chamberlain believed that the concessions made to Germany, particularly regarding the Sudetenland, would satisfy Hitler's expansionist ambitions and promote stability. However, this statement was soon proven misguided, as Germany continued its aggressive policies, leading to the outbreak of World War II the following year.
