See, my lesson says this: 
"The Roosevelt Corollary stated that the United States would intervene in Latin America on behalf of European nations. This would occur only if Latin American countries failed to repay financial debts. Roosevelt applied this in the Dominican Republic. In 1905, he installed a U.S. financial director there to solve that nation's debt problems." 
But I'm not sure which answer that would apply to?

Like it sounds like they'd be involved, but only in extreme circumstances.
