What was the first country to feel the effects of george w. bush's approach to foreign affairs, referred to as the bush doctrine (or the doctrine of preemption)? afghanistan china iraq panama

The first country to feel the effects of George W. Bush's approach to foreign affairs was Afghanistan. George W. Bush's strategy of preemption occurred distinctly in Iraq during the 2003 invasion, however, the Bush Administration also led the invasion into Afghanistan first. Therefore, depending on whether that effort could be considered preemption or responding to 9/11 it is either Afghanistan or Iraq.
