US Secretary of State Marco Rubio asked Panama to “change” his so -called “influence and control” of Panama Canal.

The top US diplomats say Panama must take action, otherwise the United States will take necessary measures to protect the rights of the two countries.

The warning was after the vow of President Donald Trump, he re -captured the Rubio and Panama Conservative President Jose Raul Mulino on Sunday in Panama City on Sunday A meeting between Rubio and Jose Raul Mulino.

These two people seem to have different explanations from two hours of meetings.

Mulino told reporters that he did not see the serious threat of the U.S. military forces to seize the canal, and he said he proposed a technical -level talks with the United States to resolve Trump’s attention to China.

However, Trump’s vow to return to the canal caused a serious strong opposition in Panama. On Friday, protesters in Panama City burned statues of Trump and Rubio.

The riot police moved to another group of demonstrators, launching tear gas and falling. The conflict is small, but the resistance of the US President’s position has been widely felt.

Mulino said on Thursday that the ownership of the canal will not discuss with Rubio.

He said: “I can’t negotiate the canal or even open the negotiation process. It has been sealed, and the canal belongs to Panama.”

Mr. Trump’s comments on the canal Including unprecedented claims That Chinese soldier is running it. He also said that although this approach will be illegal according to the treaty agreement, U.S. vessels are accused of unfairly.

In fact, this sewer was owned and operated by the Panama government, and it was a neutral treaty signed with the United States decades ago. However, Chinese companies have invested a lot of investment in ports and terminals near the canal. A company in Hong Kong runs two of the five ports near its entrance.

However, President Trump’s muscle attitude-even refused to exclude military operations to take the canal-caused a strong patriotic response in small strategic countries.

“This is too ridiculous.

She said to the Broadcasting Corporation: “He must respect a treaty, and there is no treaty in the treaty that we cannot have the port operated by Chinese people.”

Mari (Mari) was surrounded by tourists and stalls of the Panama hat and souvenirs. He explained that many residents had a strong memory of the control of the canal and did not want to go back.

The United States and Panama signed a treaty in 1979 and began a transfer process. The process completely controlled the canal in 1999.

Mary said: “If we do not comply with all the rules of the United States, we cannot cross the canal. When you cross the border, you are in the United States.”

“We have no rights in our country, and we will no longer endure this … We are very insulting to (Trump )’s words.”

For some people, Trump’s refusal to exclude the use of military forces has also triggered doubt and fear. It evoked the memory of the United States invading Panama in 1989 to dismiss the de facto ruler Manuel Noriega. This conflict lasted for several weeks and quickly drowned the Panama army.

Former Panama Councilor Edwin Cabrera, Edwin Cabrera, recalled: “I am a political leader of the opposition. If the United States wants to invade, he will kill all opposition leaders.”

He said to the Broadcasting Corporation: “I heard the bomb, and began to see that people died … President Trump and President Rubio said that they would invade us.” “I don’t want to live again in the 21st century and relive the empire to the empire. Experience. While we look at the sky, between the war between the two major powers. “

Marco Rubio is the first Spanish Secretary of State, known for its eagle positions in the region and some leaders of China. Although Panama cooperates closely with the United States on many issues, Mr. Rubio’s visit aims to show that the government is not tolerant of the country’s investment in the United States’ backyard.

In Panama, he claimed that in the case of a conflict or trade war, China could eventually use its interests to prevent American businessmen or warships at the port.

Rubio said on Fox News last week: “If China wants to stop the traffic from the Panama Canal, they can. This is the fact … This is what President Trump is proposed. We will solve this topic … This dynamics will not continue. “

Although ordinary Panama people have received overwhelming support in their country’s ownership of the canal, some people still have skepticism about their leadership attitudes and believe that the profits obtained from the waterway have not filtered enough ordinary Panama.

“What you see here-the United States and Donald Trump want to regain the canal-this is what we call causal relationships,” said Andre Howell, a hotel worker in Panama History Center.

He said: “They did not manage the Panama Canal in the correct way … No Panama has benefits.”
