Yankee Imperialism Intends to Send Troops to the Panama Canal

Donald Trump announced on April 10 that he would send troops to the Panama Canal under the guise of confronting the growing Chinese influence in the region. Nova Democracia (AND) reports that the announcement came two days after Peter Hegseth, the U.S. Secretary of Defense, stated that he would not allow China or any other country to interfere with U.S. plans for the canal. On Wednesday, he stated: “The Panama Canal is key territory that must be secured by Panama with America, and not with China.” The Panama Canal handles 40 percent of U.S. imperialist container trade and 5 percent of global trade.

The exact number of troops to be sent to Panama is still unknown, but AND reports that they may be stationed near the Canal, and warships will be able to use the canal for free and with priority. According to local media, U.S. troops may use several other facilities to deploy their forces: The Teniente Octavio Rodríguez Air Base of the National Aeronaval Service located in Panama Pacific; the Vasco Núñez de Balboa naval base; the naval base Captain of Frigate DEM. Noel A. Rodríguez; the Cristóbal Colón Naval Air Base.

The agreement reached by the Panamanian lackey government led by President José Raúl Mulino with U.S. imperialism has been strongly criticized by activists and local movements, who denounce that this movement is an invasion. There were already strong protests and flag burnings when Trump announced his interest in securing control of the Panama Canal earlier this year.

AND reminds Panama’s key role for U.S. imperialist interests: “The Panama Canal functioned as a military and commercial base controlled by the Americans until 1999, when, worn down after decades of conflicts against the popular masses of Central America, the Yankees handed over formal control of the route to the Panamanian government. Panama was also home to the School of the Americas, a U.S. military center run by the Pentagon to train Latin American military personnel in counterinsurgency strategies and combatting the ‘internal enemy‘. ” Furthermore, AND explains that this return of U.S. military presence occurs “amid intense conflicts of interest between U.S. imperialism and Chinese social-imperialism,” in which the latter has carried out numerous operations and added several countries to its project known as the “New Silk Road.” Thus, U.S. imperialism is making this move alongside other actions such as military exercises in Latin American countries and along the coasts of Central and South America, as well as direct military interventions in Peru and Colombia.
