Answer:

There is no legal or required type of obligation only a moral one because Britain and France were allies with the U.S. and the U.S. was staying neutral. The U.S. being a world power definitely put pressure on the country to do something about both Japan and Germany. But there was no obligation because if there was the U.S. would have intervened in the war as early as 1939.
