It allowed U.S. intervention in Cuban affairs.

Explanation: The Teller Amendment had promised not to annex Cuba, but the Platt Amendment (1901) limited Cuban sovereignty by permitting U.S. intervention to protect Cuban independence and stability and by allowing U.S. naval bases (e.g., Guantánamo Bay).
