The Monroe Doctrine was established long before Franklin Roosevelt, or even Theodore Roosevelt, was born. Both of them used it to justify some of their actions in Latin America. In particular, FDR used it to justify the portions of Lend-Lase that resulted in the US leasing naval facilities in the Caribbean.
Monroe Doctrine 1823
President Monroe passed the Monroe Doctrine because he was afraid of too much European involvement in Middle and South America. The US feared new involvement of European powers in the Americas -- first of France after Napoleon's victories, then of the Allied powers after Napoleon's defeat who had sworn to uphold, if necessary, by force, the power of monarchs wherever it was threatened. The Monroe doctrine expressly excluded the already existing involvement of Europe's colonial powers, but it drew the line there: every new 'colonial' effort or any armed intervention to change or forcibly retain the status quo would be actively resisted by the USA.
