news of the American victory at saratoga caused a shift in France s policy.AnswerEngland.
One of the greatest turning-points of the American Revolution was the colonists' victory over the British at Saratoga in the fall of 1777. This victory convinced several European nations that the American cause was worth supporting, with France in particular providing aid that proved critical to the ultimate victory in the war.
The battle of Saratoga was called the "turning point" of the American Revolution because it was the first victory for the American patriots. After this battle, the patriot's victory convinced the French to join in the Revolution on the American side, thus providing much military support for the U.S. soldiers.
