Answer:

The correct option is C) It warned European nations to stay away from Western nations.

Explanation:

The Monroe Doctrine was a foreign policy statement with the main agenda of blocking European powers from interfering in the Western Hemisphere.

There were four basic points discussed in the Monroe Doctrine which were:

1) The United States will not interfere in the politics of Europe matters.

2) The United States will not destroy the existing European colonies but will not allow their expansion as well

3) No further colonization in any part of the Western Hemisphere by European powers would be allowed.

4) If a European power tries establish a colony or take part in the internal matters of United States it will be countered aggressively.
