What was the impact of the platt amendment?
Shkiper50 [21]

On March 2, 1901, the Platt Amendment was passed as part of the 1901 Army Appropriations Bill. It stipulated seven conditions for the withdrawal of United States troops remaining in Cuba at the end of the Spanish–American War, and an eighth condition that Cuba sign a treaty accepting these seven conditions.  On May 22, 1903 the treaty was signed between U.S. and Cuba to protect Cuba´s independence from foreign intervention and permitting extensive U.S. involvement in Cuban international and domestic affairs for the enforcement of Cuban independence.  

The Impact:

Ironically The Platt Amendment was used by the U.S. for the Second Occupation of Cuba from 1906 to 1909. On September 29, 1906, Secretary of War (and future U.S. president) William Howard Taft initiated the Second Occupation of Cuba when he established the Provisional Government of Cuba under the terms of the treaty (Article three), declaring himself Provisional Governor of Cuba. On October 23, 1906, President Roosevelt issued Executive Order 518, ratifying the order
