The correct answer is: Option C. The United States remains neutral during political elections in El Salvador.


The approach of former president Franklin Roosevelt's Good Neighbor Policy was to cease any political and military influence on Latin American countries, respecting them as sovereign states. This means that all military forces were to be withdrawn and referred to participate in any future foreign affair, and the U.S. would not interfere in the process of political succession of these states.
