What were the effects of FDRs Good Neighbor policy during World War II?

The Good
Neighbor policy enacted by FDR prior tochanged the United States' intervention in South and
Central America to more of a diplomatic relationship as opposed to policing and enforcing. Prior
to the enactment of this policy, the US had military forces stationed throughout Central America
and also had something of a bad reputationbeing viewed as much more of an enforcer and overlord
than a neighboring country and friend.

With the United States' entry into
World War II, this benefited the country in two main ways. First, the US had the majority of
their military might available for the conflict since they had been pulled out of these
neighboring countries. Second, it earned sympathy for the US because they were no longer
enforcing policies on Latin American countries. These countries were then willing to reach out
and offer aid and support after Pearl Harbor and during the war efforts later on.
