Panama Rejects Trump’s Demand to Reclaim Canal Control: Tensions Rise Over Sovereignty of Waterway
Panama's President, Jose Raul Mulino, has firmly rejected US President-elect Donald Trump's demand to reclaim control over the Panama Canal, calling it a non-negotiable issue.
Mulino emphasized the waterway's significance as part of Panama's national heritage, with its sovereignty never up for debate.
Trump had criticized the canal fees and raised concerns over Chinese influence, but Panama stands firm in its control over the strategic waterway.
As tensions rise, this clash highlights ongoing geopolitical challenges surrounding the canal's ownership.

In a bold and controversial statement, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump threatened to retake control of the Panama Canal, accusing Panama of exploiting the United States with excessive fees. The Panama Canal, a crucial waterway for global trade, has been under Panama’s control since 1999, but Trump’s rhetoric has reignited tensions. Panama’s President Jose Raul Mulino responded fiercely, asserting the nation’s sovereignty and rejecting any U.S. claims over the canal. What does this mean for U.S.-Panama relations, and could it spark a major diplomatic showdown? Watch the full breakdown.

Tensions in the Red Sea escalated dramatically as Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels targeted the Panama-flagged bulk carrier Anadolu S with two missile strikes in a matter of hours. The first attack occurred late Sunday night, narrowly missing the vessel's stern. Despite warnings, the ship continued its course, prompting a second strike the following day, landing just a nautical mile away.
While no casualties or damage were reported, the incident highlights the Houthis' growing maritime campaign, which they claim is in solidarity with Gaza. The Bahrain-based Combined Task Force confirmed the strikes, raising concerns over shipping safety in the region. This bold assault underscores the escalating risks for international vessels navigating the Red Sea amid intensifying regional tensions.
