The United States supported Cuban independence primarily through its involvement in the Spanish-American War in 1898. The U.S. sought to liberate Cuba from Spanish colonial rule, motivated by humanitarian concerns and economic interests. Following the war, the U.S. established the Platt Amendment, which allowed for significant American influence over Cuban affairs while nominally granting Cuba independence. This intervention ultimately led to a complex relationship between the two nations, marked by U.S. dominance in Cuban politics and economics.
