Panama Canal administrator pushes back against Trump's assertions of Chinese meddling
Donald Trump that the United States should take it over. In an interview with The Associated Press, Ricaurte Vasquez denied Trump's claims that China was controlling the canal's operations, and said making exceptions to current rules concerning its operation would lead to «chaos.»
He said Chinese companies operating in the ports on either end of the canal were part of a Hong Kong consortium that won a bidding process in 1997. He added that U.S. and Taiwanese companies are operating other ports along the canal as well.
Trump has gone so far as to suggest the US should take back control of the canal and he would not rule out using military might to do so.
«It might be that you'll have to do something,» Trump said Tuesday. «The Panama Canal is vital to our country.» Trump has characterised the fees for transiting the canal that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans as «ridiculous.»
Panama President Jose Raul Mulino has said unequivocally that the canal will remain in Panamanian hands.
