"Ministro asegura a Trump: ¡El Canal de Panamá seguirá bajo nuestro control!"

Panamá ha enfatizado que su soberanía sobre el Canal de Panamá es "innegociable", tras la negativa del presidente electo de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, a descartar el uso de la fuerza militar para apoderarse de él.

Trump made the remark during a news conference on Tuesday at which he also falsely stated that the Panama Canal was being operated by Chinese soldiers.

Panama's Foreign Minister Javier Martínez-Acha responded by saying that "the only hands operating the canal are Panamanian and that is how it is going to stay".
