I whakaekehia e te US a Haiti mo nga tau 19 (1915<unk>34), i muri mai ka kaha ki te ohanga o Haiti na roto i te awhina me te utu nama. I whakaekehia ano e te US a Haiti i te tau 1994 a i te tau 2004 i whakapaehia e CARICOM mo te whakarite i te coup d'état ki te whakakore i te kaiarahi Haitian i pootihia a Jean-Bertrand Aristide. I te tau 1965, 23,000 nga hoia US i tukuna ki te Dominican Republic ki te whakakore i te tutu a rohe ki te kawanatanga hoia (tirohia te Dominican Civil War). I whakahaua e te Perehitini a Lyndon Johnson te whakaekenga hei aukati i tana i whakaaro ai he "whakawehi Communist". Heoi, i kitea te miihana he koretake, a, i tino whakahehia puta noa i te hemisphere hei hokinga ki te tautohe kaipuke. I te tau 1983, ko te US
I whakaekehia a Grenada ki te whakakore i te kaiarahi maui o te maui o Maurice Bishop. Kei te pupuri te US i tētahi turanga hōia moana i Cuba i Guantanamo Bay. Ko te turanga tetahi o nga whakahau whakakotahi e rima e "te rohe o te kawenga" ko Amerika Latina me te Karipiana. Ko te tari matua kei Miami, Florida.
