Theodore Roosevelt advocated intervention in Cuba, to support the Cuban people and their desire for independence and to promote the Monroe Doctrine. The US couldn't really take possession of a country as an imperialist if they just freed them from another imperialist. It was the beginning of the "international police" identity that would unite the nation against the evil imperialists of the world.

Yet, the US wouldn't help other nations without getting something in return. The U.S. imposed various restrictions on the new government, including prohibiting alliances with other countries, and reserved the right to intervene. The U.S. also established a perpetual lease of Guantánamo Bay, which is still infamously used today.
