In November 2025, the Trump administration released its National Security Strategy, saying it would “assert and enforce a ‘Trump Corollary’ to the Monroe Doctrine.” The objective, according to the document, is “to prevent and discourage mass migration to the United States,” to cooperate with other governments in the Western Hemisphere “against narco-terrorists, cartels and other transnational criminal organizations,” to keep the hemisphere “free of hostile foreign incursion or ownership of key assets” and supportive of supply chains, and to maintain access to strategic locations.
