Explanation:

La Corolario de Roosevelt fue una extensión de la Doctrina Monroe. En el caso de la República Dominicana, Roosevelt estaba preocupado por que países europeos tomaran medidas (como intervención militar) si la República Dominicana no pagaba sus deudas. La Corolario justificaba la intervención estadounidense en asuntos de América Latina para evitar la intervención europea.

Roosevelt was concerned European countries would take action if the Dominican Republic failed to pay its debts.
