Why did president mckinley believe it was important for the united states to become involved in cuba’s interest prior to the spanish american war

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

President McKinley believed it was important for the United States to become involved in Cuba’s interest prior to the Spanish American war because the President of the United States was interested in protecting the interests of the country in the Caribbean region.

As the 25th President of the United States, William McKinley knew that he had to intervene in the Cuban-Spain conflict due to the economic and political interest of the US in the region. He first made everything to get an agreement that could have given Cuba its independence from Spain, and avoid military intervention. That was not possible and that is why, after the sinking of the USS Main ship, the US declared war to Spain in what was known as the Spanish-American War of 1898.
