I believe that it should not have if they regarded their Monroe Doctrine which emphasized non-invovlement in European or global affaris unless it was attacked itself. This invovlement would have invalidated the agreement, and the surrounding American countries would then have an opprotunity to make power ploys. I do not know if htis is still prudent, but the threat of communism is itself a domestic threat, not relinquished in the global affaris as long as the national security remains more secure then the penetration force of such moves suggesting the Monroe Doctrine seemed more appropriate to follow then intervention.
it was Word War II, which had arisen in part out of the Great Depression, that finally pulled the United States out of its decade-long economic crisis.
