The correct answer is A) democracy was being gravely threatened.

Before the German invasion in 1940, France was a democratic state under the Third Republic, but after the fall of Paris the Third Republic collapsed and France became a puppet state of Germany under the fascist and authoritative Vichy Regime. This was a clear violation of Western democracy since France was a hallmark for democracy in Europe and the world and now Nazism threatened with expanding fascism and totalitarianism across the continent.
