All of the following statements regarding the Monroe Doctrine are correct EXCEPT?

A. Issued by Monroe in response to an onslaught by European monarchies against democracy in the Americas.

B. Would have been ineffective without the backing of the British navy.

C. Monroe saw this policy as a means of bringing back peaceful cooperation between Britain and the U.S.

D. Had little contemporary impact; few South Americans were even aware of it.

E. Warned European governments away from intervention in the Americas; aimed primarily at Russia.

I'll be glad to check your answer.

I think it is C or D. But I'm leaning towards C.

I agree with C.

To determine which statement is NOT correct, we will evaluate each statement individually:

A. Issued by Monroe in response to an onslaught by European monarchies against democracy in the Americas.
This statement is correct. The Monroe Doctrine was issued by President James Monroe in 1823 as a response to the perceived threat of European colonization and intervention in the Americas.

B. Would have been ineffective without the backing of the British navy.
This statement is also correct. At the time, the British navy was the most powerful naval force, and its support was essential for the Monroe Doctrine to be effective in deterring European powers from interfering in the Americas.

C. Monroe saw this policy as a means of bringing back peaceful cooperation between Britain and the U.S.
This statement is NOT correct. The Monroe Doctrine was not specifically aimed towards bringing peaceful cooperation between Britain and the U.S. It primarily focused on warning European governments to stay out of the affairs of the newly independent countries in the Americas.

D. Had little contemporary impact; few South Americans were even aware of it.
This statement is also correct. The immediate impact of the Monroe Doctrine was indeed limited, as it was not widely known or understood in South America at the time of its issuance.

E. Warned European governments away from intervention in the Americas; aimed primarily at Russia.
This statement is correct. The Monroe Doctrine explicitly warned European governments against intervention in the Americas, and although not explicitly named, it was also aimed at Russia, which was seen as a potential threat due to its presence on the Pacific coast of North America.

Therefore, the statement that is NOT correct is C. Monroe did not see the policy as a means of bringing back peaceful cooperation between Britain and the U.S.
