The Monroe Doctrine was given by President James Monroe, on December 2, 1823. It was written because Monroe was concerned about Europe gaining sovereignty in the western hemisphere.He then proceeded to write letters to former presidents Jefferson and Madison. They told hi to join with Britain. John Quincy Adams disagreed with them, so he wrote the Monroe Doctrine. The Monroe doctrine was written by John Quincy Adams, who was his secretary. The doctrine is the foundation of foreign policy. The doctrine included three parts to get across to countries in Europe. They are non-colonization and non intervention. It also warned European countries not to interfere in the western hemisphere. The Doctrine was not used much during that time, because they did not have the military power to support it. It was invoked in 1865 when the United States was putting pressure on Benito Juarez. He then led a revolt against the Emperor Maximilian in France. Another time, President Theodore Roosevelt enforced it during the Venezuela Border Dispute and secured the independence of Cuba from Spanish rule. = =
