15 Jun 1898 Jahr - Anti-Imperialist League

Beschreibung:

The Teller Amendment was passed by the United States Congress in April 1898, at the outset of the Spanish-American War, stipulating that the United States would not establish permanent control over Cuba and that control of the island would be transferred to its people after the war. This amendment was meant to reassure those concerned about imperialistic intentions by the U.S. and underscored the stated objective of the war to ensure Cuba's independence from Spain.
