The Monroe Doctrine was important to The US and Great Britain as well. The doctrine was aimed primarily at France and Russia. It in fact had the blessing of Great Britain. The economics of it were of prime concern to Great Britain for several reasons. By declaring that the Western Hemisphere was no longer open to further colonization by the Great Powers of Europe, the doctrine also declared that the US would have no interest in making colonies for itself. This was welcomed by Great Britain as it owned Canada. It also, via its naval fleet protected its commercial interests with the newly independent nations of Latin America.

Further to this, it laid out a warning to Russia concerning its activities in the great northwest, which helped Great Britain as well. The doctrine laid a foundation for preventing France to take adventures in the Western Hemisphere. And, that concern was genuine as later in the century Mexico became a target for French Imperialism.
