Detailed explanation-1: -The original principle of President Monroe’s statement is still relevant today. The United States should be concerned about external powers taking actions in the Western Hemisphere that could affect U.S. peace and security.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Monroe Doctrine subsequently contributed to the emergence of the US as a world power by early 20th century, certainly the sole power in the North and South America. The US thereafter began to play a lead role in the foreign affairs of the Americas and began influencing the European nations too.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Monroe Doctrine expressed a spirit of solidarity with the newly independent republics of Latin America. These nations in turn recognized their political affinity with the United States by basing their new constitutions, in many instances, on the North American model.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Monroe Doctrine became a foundation piece of American foreign policy and helped solidify a new American identity to the world. In declaring the Western Hemisphere unavailable to European interference, it also warned that the United States would interpret any foreign involvement there as aggression.
