how does the monroe doctrine continue president washington’s ideas on foreign policy?
○ it discouraged the colonies controlled by european nations from declaring independence.
○ it confirmed that the united states wished to stay out of european affairs.
○ it announced that the intention of the united states was to be hostile to european nations.
○ it declared that the government would encourage european involvement in the western hemisphere.

Explanation:

The question is about the Monroe Doctrine's relation to Washington's foreign policy ideas. Washington's Farewell Address emphasized neutrality in European affairs. The Monroe Doctrine continued this by stating the US wanted to stay out of European affairs (matching the option "It confirmed that the United States wished to stay out of European affairs"). Other options are incorrect: the Monroe Doctrine didn't discourage colonies from declaring independence, wasn't hostile to European nations, and discouraged European involvement in the Americas (not encourage).

Answer:

The option: "It confirmed that the United States wished to stay out of European affairs." (the third option in the list of choices)
