The White House in December designated the western hemisphere an American Homeland Security Zone. The move pledged to deny rival powers control of strategically important assets near US shores, @SCMPNews reported. US officials described the strategy as the Trump Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine.
The Monroe Doctrine was first articulated more than 200 years ago. Beijing responded within days by issuing its third policy paper on Latin America. The paper rejected hegemonism and power politics, opposed unilateral bullying, and stated that China's ties with the region were not subjugated by any third party, according to @SCMPNews.
The exchange was detailed in an article published at 11:00 pm on 3 July 2026 and updated at 11:03 pm.
