Explanation:

Cuban leaders recognized that the United States would not end its military occupation and control of the island unless Cuba accepted the Platt Amendment. Though Cubans opposed the amendment's restrictions on their sovereignty, they agreed to add it to their constitution as part of a treaty with the U.S. to regain formal self-rule, even as it made Cuba a U.S. protectorate.

Answer:

Cuba added the Platt Amendment to its constitution because the United States refused to end its military government of the island unless Cuba accepted the amendment. Despite strong Cuban dislike for the amendment, which restricted their sovereignty and made Cuba a U.S. protectorate, they agreed to it to regain formal control of their territory.
