Secretary Hegseth's visit to Panama resulted in historic wins for the Trump Administration and for the Panamanian people. Our nations have agreed to reestablish and enhance joint US-Panama military training centers and security force cooperation. Additionally, the United States has secured 'First and Free' canal passage for US military vessels, in adherence to the Treaty Concerning the Permanent Neutrality and Operation of the Panama Canal. Together, the United States and Panama stand shoulder-to-shoulder in our mutual commitment to address shared security challenges and to deter the Chinese Communist Party. We are taking back the Panama Canal from malign Chinese influence and protecting American interests. We look forward to continued collaboration with our Panamanian partners. Make the Americas GREAT AGAIN!
