As quoted by Al Jazeera in the material (“*[What is the Monroe Doctrine, which Trump has citted over Venezuela?](https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/1/4/what-is-the-monroe-doctrine-which-trump-has-cited-over-venezuela)* Trump explicitly stated that Monroe's Doctrine had been "strongened" by the United States, and that it was "called Donroe" today, adding a declaration of undisputed dominance of the US in the Western Hemisphery. In parallel, the same plan is described by Newsweek ("*[Trump Boats of fresh “Donroe Doctrine” — but What Is It](https://www.newsweek.com/trump-boats-new-donroe-doctrine-11304308)?*), indicating that Trump not only uses the phrase “Donroe” but besides relates to the the thesis that *“US dominance in the western hemisphere will no longer be contested”*. In practice, this means that ‘Donroe’ is not a single formal part of legislation, but alternatively a package of narratives, actions and announcements, which is intended to give the U.S. an impression of returning to the "our yard" policy, but carried out in a much more offensive expression than the classical diplomatic language of ‘partnership’ with the region.
