D. protective

Explanation:

The Monroe Doctrine was a foreign policy led by the US during the 1800s that stated the US would not interfere in the internal affairs of European powers and it’s colonies in the Western Hemisphere, but European countries could not have any more future colonization and any attempt by Europeans to oppress or control any nation in the Western Hemisphere would be viewed as hostile against the US.

The US defended that Latin American countries should be helped and not oppressed by their once colonizers. This way the United States took the role of protector of the Western Hemisphere.
