[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The author views the Treaty of Versailles as a backward-looking document that sought to punish Germany for its role in World War I rather than moving forward towards reconciliation and peace. The harsh terms of the treaty imposed on Germany are seen as contributing to the economic and political instability that ultimately led to World War II. The author believes that a more forward-looking approach, focused on building a more cooperative and peaceful global community, would have been more effective in preventing future conflicts.
