Detailed explanation-1: -The Monroe Doctrine was a United States foreign policy position that opposed European colonialism in the Western Hemisphere. It held that any intervention in the political affairs of the Americas by foreign powers was a potentially hostile act against the United States.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Monroe Doctrine is certainly a military threat, and the psychology of a threat is always to create enemies instead of friends, suspicion instead of trust. Curiously, the threat of the Doctrine was aimed at European nations and was pronounced in the interest and protection of Latin-American colonies.
Detailed explanation-3: -Although initially disregarded by the great powers of Europe, the Monroe Doctrine became a mainstay of U.S. foreign policy. In 1823 U.S. President James Monroe proclaimed the U.S. protector of the Western Hemisphere by forbidding European powers from colonizing additional territories in the Americas.
