Von Behren</em>, 822 F.3d 1139, 1144 (10th Cir. 2016).

Murphy</em>, 465 U.S. 420, 426 (1984) (quoting <em>Lefkowitz v. Turley</em>, 414 U.S. 70, 77 (1973)).

Roosevelt's Good Neighbor Policy did not fare well.<br> True<br> False
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The policy's main principle was that of non-intervention and non-interference in the domestic affairs of Latin America. It also reinforced the idea that the United States would be a "good neighbor" and engage in reciprocal exchanges with Latin American countries.

The policy's success was measured in part by the rapidity with which most Latin American states rallied to the Allies during World War II. After the war, however, U.S. anticommunist policies in Europe and Asia led to renewed distrust in the Americas and the gradual lapse of the Good Neighbor Policy.
