What did the Roosevelt Corollary to。the

Monroe Doctrine state?

The Roosevelt Corollary was an addition to the Monroe Doctrine, which stated that the United States would intervene in the affairs of Latin American countries to prevent European colonization and maintain stability in the region. The Roosevelt Corollary, announced by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1904, went further by asserting that the United States had the right to intervene in the internal affairs of any Latin American country that was deemed to be unstable or unable to manage its own affairs. This was seen as a justification for American intervention in Latin America, and it led to increased U.S. involvement in the region over the following decades.
