US Defense Minister: Washington China’s impact on Panama Channel does not allow
US Defense Secretary Beat Higste has confirmed that the Donald Trump government will expose China to China’s “risk” in Panama on Tuesday.
“Today, the Panama Channel is facing new threats,” the minister said at a police station at the entrance gates. The United States does not allow the Communist China or any other country to endanger the channel’s operation or safety. ”
Chinese and American companies are competing for business in the waterway, and President Donald Trump has repeatedly threatened control over China. The United States made a channel a century ago and later handed it to Panama in 1999. A registered company in Hong Kong connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and passes through five percent of the entire global shipping movement.
“I want to be very clear,” added Higstet. China has not built this channel. China does not operate this channel. This channel does not use the weapon. In his speech and in his speech, the President of Panama Jose Raul Molino, together with the United States and Panama Channel, supported the Chinese Channel “and opened to all countries, using the” resistant power “of the American army, insisting that the world is the most powerful, effective and worst of the world.”
Higste said that the Chinese control Panama and the United States on key infrastructure in the canal region have been given the ability to manage the “less secure, less prosperous and less sovereignty”. But the Chinese embassy in Panama responded with a statement rejected by Higstet’s claims that Beijing would intervene in canal activities.
China has never participated in the management or management of the Panama Channel or intervened in the affairs of the waterway, and Washington has called for “blackmail and exploitation” of Panama and other countries in the region. Higseth’s comments were described as “irresponsible or justified”, with the United States “, a controversial propaganda based on” Chinese threat theory “with the aim of undermining cooperation between China and Panama.
. But Beijing has been asked to review the Anti -Monoopoli Bodies Agreement, which has prevented the two parties from signing on April 2 as both parties are scheduled for April 2.
The visit of US Foreign Secretary Marco Rubio comes two months later Higste Panama. After the visit, Panama announced its withdrawal from the Belt and World Road Initiative, which was launched by Chinese President Xi Jinping.
