o d. the united states would intervene in latin american affairs in order to keep european countries out.

The correct answer is D. According to the Roosevelt Corollary, the United States would intervene in Latin American affairs in order to keep European countries out.

Explanation:

The Roosevelt Corollary was a substantial amendment to the Monroe Doctrine by President Theodore Roosevelt. In its altered state, the Monroe Doctrine would now consider Latin America and the Caribbean as territory to expand the commercial interests of the United States in the region, in addition to its original purpose, to maintain European hegemony outside the hemisphere.

This amendment stated that if a Latin American or Caribbean country threatened or endangered the rights or property of American citizens or companies, the US government was obliged to intervene in the internal affairs of the "derailed" country to reorder it, restoring the rights and patrimony of its citizens and its companies.
