Answer:

The right answer is:

2)Monroe Doctrine .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Roosevelt Corollary is an addition to the Monroe Doctrine. Its thesis is that the United States would intervene as a last resort in the affairs of the Western Hemisphere´s nations to make sure that they fulfill their international credit obligations, in order to avoid harm to American interests or to create conditions for European intervention in that nation. In practice, the Roosevelt corollary translated into military interventions in the region to restore stability in troubled countries. The doctrine owes its name to president Theodore Rsoovelt.
