The Roosevelt Corollary is the correct answer, as it established the U.S. right to intervene in Latin America to maintain stability, acting as a 'policeman.' This policy was articulated by Theodore Roosevelt in 1904 as an extension of the Monroe Doctrine. It positioned the United States as a key power in Western Hemisphere affairs.
