Roosevelt Corollary
President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared the right of the United States to intervene in Latin America in his 1904 corollary to the Monroe Doctrine. This corollary, known as the Roosevelt Corollary, expanded on the original Monroe Doctrine and asserted the US's authority to intervene in Latin American countries to preserve stability and protect its interests.
The Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine proclaimed that the United States would "protect" the nations of Central and South America from European interference by exercising an international police force in the area. The actions of the United States under the corollary pleased US and European investors because it protected their monetary interests in the area, but the corollary also created ill will between the US and the nations of Latin America who felt that they were being bullied by the great American colossus of the North. The seizure of the Panama Canal zone was an example of action that greatly offended Latin America. MrV
