Correct Answer: rescind


Solution : The first option is the correct choice.

Rescind means to revoke, cancel, or annul a decision, order, or agreement. In the context of the sentence, rescinding obnoxious measures indicates the need to revoke or cancel those measures.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Requisite means necessary or required.

  • Quaint means charmingly old-fashioned or attractively unusual.

  • Repeat means to do something again.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "As a preliminary to negotiation, the government was required to rescind all the obnoxious measures."
