MONROE+DOCTRINE

=MONROE DOCTRINE by:Emilie C.=

The Monroe Doctrine was the first foreign document and it was introduced by James Monroe on December 2, 1823. In this doctrine it was made clear that America would not let European colonies to colonize with the Americans or interfer with the independent states. He said : "With the existing colonies or dependencies of any European power we have not ... and shall not interfere, but with the Governments ... whose independence we have ... acknowledged, we [would] view any interposition for the purpose of oppressing ... or controlling [them], by any European power ... as an unfriendly disposition toward the United States." and now this polocy has been use from president to peresident. Also other persedents have followed in his footsteps and made their own doctrines.
