The Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine was an addition by President Theodore Roosevelt. It was based on the idea of "international police power." The U.S. saw itself as having the right to intervene in Latin - American countries to ensure they paid debts to European creditors. This was to prevent European military intervention (which the Monroe Doctrine was against in the Americas). The U.S. military was essentially acting as a "police force" in this context.
- The first option is incorrect as it was not about the U.S. being unsuable.
- The third option is too simplistic as it was not just about attacking foreign militaries but about the U.S. taking on the role of enforcer.
- The fourth option is wrong as it was about U.S. intervention, not banning it.
