Explanation:

The event in the photograph (likely related to the Nuremberg Trials or similar post - WWII efforts) had the primary purpose of punishing individuals responsible for war crimes, especially those related to the Holocaust and other atrocities of World War II. Option A is about territorial disputes, which is not the focus. Option B is about financial settlements for survivors, which is not the main purpose of such events. Option D is about military budget cuts, which is irrelevant. So the correct option is C.

Answer:

C. to punish individuals responsible for war crimes
