the united states took on a protectionist role to justify interventions in latin america.
the united states remained neutral in conflicts that took place in latin america.

Explanation:

The Roosevelt Corollary (an addition to the Monroe Doctrine) and the various military interventions (like in Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Nicaragua, Mexico) show that the U.S. was using a pretext (such as protection - economic, political stability) to justify its interventions in Latin America. The "Big Stick Diplomacy" and "Moral Diplomacy" are just different rationales for intervention. The U.S. was not neutral (as seen by the interventions), there is no indication of a direct link to World War I in the chart, and the impact on the American economy (while possible) is not addressed in the chart.

Answer:

The United States took on a protectionist role to justify interventions in Latin America.
