The Platt Amendment, adopted in 1901, allowed the United States to intervene in Cuban affairs to maintain order. It limited Cuba's sovereignty by preventing it from signing treaties with other nations without U.S. approval. The key choice reflecting this is C: it gave the United States the right to preserve order as needed in Cuba.
