There was not many foreign policy issues associated with President John Quincy Adams. There were few [|foreign affairs]  related with John Quincy Adams. Adams opened up trade through commercial treaties with places including, Austria, Brazil, the Central American Federation, Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. After this happened it granted the United States trading rights, where Adams arranged a convention with Britain regarding to the seizure of property during the [|War of 1812] . Some issues that resulted during his foreign affairs were that it prevented him from resolving the ongoing trade with the [|British West Indies] . This is where Congress was set to deny him any mark of success or any other efforts.

 Another foreign affair that involved John Quincy Adams was the [|Adams-Onis Treaty] where he negotiated as Secretary of State. This treaty is also called the [|Treaty of Florida], which co mbined the [|F] [|lorida territory] and the United States and sets a boundary line between the US and Spain. This treaty was created after the [|Louisiana Purchase] because [|Jefferson] argued that Florida should be apart of the purchased land, but it was not added to the land until later when John Quincy Adams became president which he argued and won, adding Florida into the United States line of territory. Adams did not have many foreign affairs as president but the Adams-Onis Treaty and trading rights were some challenges Adams handled as president.

The most important foreign policy for John Quincy Adams was the [| Monroe Doctrine] , which was introduced in 1823. The Monroe Doctrine was written by John Quincy Adams while he was Secretary of State. The Monroe Doctrine states that the United States would not interfere with existing European colonies or meddle with concerns of the European countries. This doctrine was for Spain and Portugal to improve the condition for their people. At this time most of Spain and Portugal were independent so the United States and the British were trying to keep the European power from moving in. The main objective of this doctrine was to free the new independent colonies from Spanish control. The Monroe Doctrine also keeps from colonization on the western hemisphere, but would not disturb colonies already in the Western hemisphere. This doctrine also keeps us from joining any European wars and keeps Europeans from interfering with our wars.
