Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

It went along with American military action, is the right answer.

Taft's "Dollar Diplomacy" was a foreign policy of the United States which was formed to promote and protect American trade and finance in Latin America and Asia. President Taft enacted this policy by following his view that the strong economic presence abroad would promote the interests of Americans. However, to protect the American investors in Latin America and Asia the U.S. Dollar Diplomacy was accompanied by military intervention.
