Monroe Doctrine
The Monroe Doctrine is a statement by President James Monroe directed towards European nations. The Monroe Doctrine makes clear that European powers could no longer attempt to colonize any of the states or territories of the United States. In the Doctrine, Monroe recognizes that many European powers already have established colonies in the United States. Monroe promises he will not interfere with these established colonies. However, if any European country attempts to interfere with or colonize any states, the United States would view their actions as a sign of aggression and take measures to stop their attempts.
