The Ford Administration dealt with difficult foreign policy issues with all of the following except South America. So for the given question, the correct option is option “c”. President Ford should always be remembered for the tough circumstances under which he had to assume the office. The United States of America was going through a crisis situation. Ford became President only when Nixon resigned from Presidency in the year 1974. So he was never chooses by the people of the United States. He almost became president by default.
