State Department Asserts ‘This Is Our Hemisphere,’ Magnifying Trump’s ‘Don-Roe’ Doctrine
The U.S. asserts dominance invoking Monroe Doctrine principles amid threats of intervention and rising military presence to counter narcotics and foreign influence, officials said.
- Recently, the U.S. State Department posted a black-and-white photo of President Donald Trump asserting U.S. control over the Western Hemisphere, reflecting a Monroe-Doctrine–style posture against foreign influence.
- Domestic and regional developments, including force posture last year, reflect President Donald Trump's claims that Nicolás Maduro cooperates with "narco-terrorists" and Secretary of State Marco Rubio's recent warnings about Iran and Hezbollah in Venezuela.
- An incursion that captured Nicolás Maduro followed months of strikes the White House described as against "drug boats", and Maduro and Cilia Flores appeared in handcuffs at a Manhattan helipad.
- Direct warnings to neighbours have amplified as domestic disapproval grew, with President Donald Trump telling Colombian President Gustavo Petro to "watch his ass" amid plummeting domestic approval ratings and focus on Jeffrey Epstein documents.
- Unconventional ideas like annexing Greenland and threats regarding Mexico underscore broader regional risks, while officials link removing Maduro to blocking Iran and Hezbollah from operating in Venezuela.
