Detailed explanation-1: -The Monroe Doctrine is the best known U.S. policy toward the Western Hemisphere. Buried in a routine annual message delivered to Congress by President James Monroe in December 1823, the doctrine warns European nations that the United States would not tolerate further colonization or puppet monarchs.
Detailed explanation-2: -European countries, in general, largely ignored the Monroe Doctrine since the United States at the time lacked the military power or prowess to enforce its foreign policy.
Detailed explanation-3: -Great Britain shared the general objective of the Monroe Doctrine, and even wanted to declare a joint statement to keep other European powers from further colonizing the New World. The British feared their trade with the New World would be harmed if the other European powers further colonized it.
