Breaking deals with China won’t matter, because it’s never been about purported Chinese control. The canal will be American and Panama can only choose to let it go honorably or dishonorably.

Is there anything Panama can realistically do about this, or is there anything internally in the US that can stop this? Honestly just seems so hopeless.

This dumb motherfucker got Panama to pull out of Belt and Road and he’s still insisting on war. I think Trump is unironically Holden Bloodfeast but for the entire world instead of just Iran

>The company in question is the Panama Ports Company, part of a subsidiary of the Hong Kong-based conglomerate CK Hutchison Holdings. Hutchinson Ports is one of the world’s largest port operators, overseeing 53 ports in 24 countries, including for other US allies such as the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada.
So this is the company that cause headaches to Republicans. I didn’t know China has so much grip on our allies, especially Canada who is so close to us
>Mulino also said Panamanian authorities are carrying out an audit on a company linked to China that operates two terminals around the canal.
I want to see the results too. If the company is in control by CCP, we are gonna be in so much problem

So, I guess Trump didn’t “successfully bully” Panama so thats good news. Bad news is the only reason why he wasn’t “successful” is because he’s insane and wants to take the canal.
