Havana Conference of 1940
- Havana Conference of 1940
The Havana Conference was a conference held in the Cuban capital of Havana in 1940.
As Germany began to take over countries throughout Europe during World War II many colonies in the New World found themselves orphaned (such as those owned by Netherlands, Denmark and France). At the conference the United States thus agreed to share with its neighbors the responsibility of protecting the Monroe Doctrine. The Havana Conference marked a dramatic change in the use of the Monroe Doctrine. No longer was it to be used solely for economic dominance and imperialism by the United States, but in conjunction with its 20 neighbors, to defend the collective security of the Western Hemisphere.
