"We will regain control of the Panama Canal"/ The President responds harshly to Trump

Panamanian President Jose Raul Mulino immediately responded to Donald Trump's statement that he would regain control of the "Panama Canal." Trump said that the Canal was under the control of China and therefore had to intervene. However, Mulino stated that the Canal is and will be Panama's only and that it has never been under the control of China.   

"I must completely reject the statements made by President Donald Trump regarding Panama and its Canal in his inaugural address. I reiterate what I said in my message to the nation on December 22:

"The canal is and will remain Panamanian. Dialogue remains the ideal approach to address these issues without compromising our rights, full sovereignty, or ownership of our canal."  /CNA
