US Seeks Reconsideration of Panama Canal Fees Amid Dispute

ai generated text

According to various articles, Donald Trump has expressed his discontent with the current situation regarding the Panama Canal. He claims that the fees charged by Panama for US ships passing through the canal are "ridiculous" and that this constitutes a "rip-off" of the US. Trump also hints at China's growing influence around the canal and warns that it will not be allowed to "fall into the wrong hands". Trump further suggests that the Panama Canal should be returned to the US, given its historical contribution to the canal's construction and administration.

    1. Our Navy and Commerce have been treated in a very unfair and injudicious way. The fees being charged by Panama are ridiculous, especially knowing the extraordinary generosity that has been bestowed to Panama by the US.
    2. Our Navy and Commerce have been treated in a very unfair and injudicious way. The fees being charged by Panama are ridiculous.
    3. It was solely for Panama to manage, not China, or anyone else. It was likewise not given for Panama to charge the United States, its Navy, and corporations, doing business within our Country, exorbitant prices and rates of passage.
    4. If the principles, both moral and legal, of this magnanimous gesture of giving are not followed, then we will demand that the Panama Canal be returned to us, in full, and without question. To the Officials of Panama, please be guided accordingly!
