The Platt Amendment codified relations between the United States and Cuba after the Spanish-American War. Introduced and signed by both countries in 1901, and added to the 1902 Cuban Constitution.
The Platt Amendment outlined the role of the United States in Cuba and the Caribbean and also ensured that Cuba sell or lease lands to the United States necessary for coaling or the development of naval stations, which in 1903 included a coaling and naval station at Guantanamo Bay.

Is it fair for the US to meddle in the affairs of countries for economic and territorial gain at the expense of the country?
This is a loaded question. Meddling may be fair, but it is expensive for the US and often does not create the desired results. The US does not seek territorial gains per se, but may want sites such as air-fields and safe harbors for military operations but not at the expense of the host country. Every country seeks economic gain and international trade should benefit both trading partners. However, if a foreign government invites Americans to invest and build businesses or bases in their country, they should not later be allowed to nationalize and confiscate these businesses or bases and if they try, meddling may be justified.
