Detailed explanation-1: -Though Japan had signed the pact, the combination of the worldwide depression and a limited desire to go to war to preserve China prevented the League of Nations or the United States from taking any action to enforce it.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Kellogg-Briand Pact intended to establish “the renunciation of war as an instrument of national policy, ” but was largely ineffective in preventing conflict or war.
Detailed explanation-3: -A common criticism is that the Kellogg–Briand Pact did not live up to all of its aims but has arguably had some success. It was unable to prevent the Second World War but was the base for trial and execution of Nazi leaders in 1946. Furthermore, declared wars became very rare after 1945.
