Good Neighbor Policy

The Good Neighbor Policy was a diplomatic approach by the United States in the 1930s aimed at improving relationships with Latin American countries. Instead of using military force or intervention, the U.S. committed to respecting their sovereignty and promoting mutual understanding. This policy fostered a more friendly and cooperative atmosphere, encouraging Latin American nations to view the U.S. as a partner rather than a threat. It helped rebuild trust and laid the groundwork for stronger regional cooperation during that era.
