What was the position of the United States in relation to the liberation war in Latin America?

During the wars between the metropolis and the former colonies, the United States of America did not intervene too actively, only using the conflict to seize and annex Spanish territories in Florida. However, at the last stage, the United States began to actively establish diplomatic relations with the new states, declaring support for their claims to independence and support for the republican movement. In 1822, President James Monroe declared that America was not a place for European colonial claims, while the United States intended not to interfere in European affairs. However, at the same time, the United States government itself hoped to extend its influence to the new states.
