The Platt Amendment of 1901 forbade Cuba from entering into any treaties that would allow undue foreign involvement in Cuban aff
airs. This law was passed after the Spanish-American War to make sure that European nations weren’t going to get involved with Cuba. Why might the Platt Amendment be considered ironic?
What reasons would The United States have for not wanting European influence in Cuba?
One way in which the Platt Amendment reversed the intent of the Teller Amendment was that "The Platt Amendment allowed for continued American influence in Cuba," since it only allowed withdrawal of US troops based on specific conditions.
