United States would end old policies of interference and build new, respectful partnerships with Latin American and Caribbean neighbors.
This resolution calls for the United States to formally end the Monroe Doctrine. This doctrine has guided past interventions in Latin America and the Caribbean. The resolution would replace it with a 'New Good Neighbor' policy focused on respect and cooperation. This new approach aims to stop unilateral sanctions and boost development support for the region.
Today, the Monroe Doctrine is still cited by some US officials, and the US maintains various unilateral sanctions and has a history of intervention in Latin America. If this resolution passes, the Department of State would formally declare the Monroe Doctrine is no longer US policy. The US would then work to end unilateral sanctions, increase congressional oversight on sanctions, and commit to respecting international law and the sovereignty of countries in the Western Hemisphere.
