How does Roosevelt feel about foreign policy? Remember the Monroe Doctrine??? What did it say? The US stated in the 1820s that it would not allow European intervention in the Western Hemisphere. Basically, Latin America is our backyard---and European powers aren’t invited to the barbeque!!!

Why do we care so much about Latin America? It’s all about the money, money, money! Latin American countries had been borrowing from European banks to build up their infrastructure. Roosevelt was worried that Europe would stick their noses into Latin America’s business if the countries defaulted on their loans

Roosevelt Corollary A corollary is an additional statement that follows logically from the first one. The Roosevelt Corollary is an addition to the Monroe Doctrine. Roosevelt reminds Europeans of the Monroe Doctrine, and goes on to add that if any problems were to come up in Latin America, that the US would be “forced to exercise an international police power.”

Big Stick Diplomacy REMEMBER! On the outside, Roosevelt uses diplomatic tactics to get what he wants. In other words, he negotiates with other nations. Meanwhile, he threatens other countries with the might of the American military. What does that look like?
