Colombian President Gustavo Petro has slammed Donald Trump’s proposal to retake the Panama Canal.
Petro, a former Marxist guerilla and vocal supporter of Joe Biden, wrote in a post on the X platform that the number of illegal migrants crossing heading to the southern border would increase by “millions” unless Trump recognized the canal belongs to Panama.
He wrote:
Until the last consequences I will be on the side of Panama and the defense of its sovereignty.
If the new US government wants to talk business, we will talk business, face to face, and for the benefit of our people, but dignity will never be negotiated.
President Trump has made a mistake and contradicted himself. If he does not want myriads crossing the Darien, increased by millions from Panama to Mexico, he must understand that it will depend on the prosperity and freedom of our peoples.
If it seems expensive to pay to pass the Panama Canal into the hands of Panamanians, it will be much more expensive to plunge Panama, South America, Central America or Mexico into poverty.
If they don’t want us in the US, we must make all of the Americas prosperous in independence, freedom and democratic dignity.

Funny way to tell Trump, say yes we can negotiate.
What is this? An admission that Latin America hates their own citizens or admitting their citizens are human garbage to be used to destroy other nations?
Yes, and yes.
I can say Petro is hated in Colombia... really hated.
Finish the damn wall , sea to sea . Militarize it , the way the Israelis do. Anyone trying to break through should be shot dead. Without apology . Use Claymores. Stack um up...

Realize,
There is A LOT of show-boating by these leaders.
It scores them points standing up to the Gringo in the North.
Scheinbaum, Petro, Mulino, and others are blowing that horn as loud they can. It makes them look important and strong.
Those leaders that are actually concerned like Moduro are extending olive branches and staying generally neutral. Nothing to antagonize the orange man.

Narco states are about to get checked.
Getting control of the Panama canal would be a good way to prevent the South Americans from illegally coming to the US.
Tells you all you need to know about Diapers Biden.

Where have you been and why hasn't that already been done? Nothing stopped you before now except the willpower to make it happen? Or is the knowledge of how to do that the missing ingredient?
I read today that some ships have to pay as much as $400,000 for a single pass through the canal. And the chicoms are said to be running many things behind the scenes as well.
I think Trump should let this “Marxist guerilla” know in no uncertain terms that if he sends millions of invaders to our southern border it will be considered an act of war that would not end until Gustavo Petro’s head is on a pike.
I wonder what his interest is in it?
.
““When President Jimmy Carter foolishly gave it away, for One Dollar, during his term in Office, it was solely for Panama to manage, not China, or anyone else,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social on Saturday.
“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.””
.
All very good reasons to just take it back.
The Columbian commie will just have to send in a dozen Divisions of armor and infantry to...
Oh, never mind, they only have about eight Divisions in the entire Columbian Army.
Good `ol Mr. Gustavo better start rounding up “migrants” and convince them to take a little hike through Darién Gap.
They tell people “it’s nice.”
.
What a cruel guy to use his people as 1,000,000 pawns.
Ya but, but, but, Ukraine!
Ukraine aint our problem. It is south of our border that is the problem.
The head of the Sinaloa cartel has put out hit orders on citizens of the USA.
WITHIN, our country and that includes politicians and their family members if they can’t get to the individual politician.
Why would Columbians elect a Marxist when they’ve seen what happened to Venezuela?
