MASSIVE win for @SecRubio
Following his meeting with the Panamanians, the country’s president announced that it will not be renewing its deal with China’s Belt and Road
...
If people don’t know anything about the historic Silk Road and China’s Belt and Road initiative, it’s time to learn.
...
Ahhhh HA! Trump is right! The Chinese has been using the Panama Canal and Panama has been profiting…
....
the last admin was working for the CCP
...
Now let's do Cuba. Let's get rid of the Communist regime in Cuba once and for all. There should not be a communist regime so close to the US. The Cuban people would embrace opening up Cuba and letting them vote democratically. Their economy would soar.
Little Marco isn’t as little as he used to be….
WHAT is the renewal date?
100 years out?
Winning!!
Marco now Macro! :)
I think Rubio was a good choice. so far, so good. And that he speaks spanish is an asset and good optics.
Marco has been a nice surprise
doesnt hurt that Trump is backing him up
he just has to say
let me call the boss
I have never liked Marco. As far back as I can remember.
But he is proving so far to be the balance that we need to Trump’s bull in a china shop. Trump shakes it up. someone else comes in and makes the deal.
The guy who made the deal for the hostages and getting the country to take illegals AND provide transportation did a good job.
According to a CNN article, the 2017 Belt and Road deal with China was made through a “memorandum of understanding.” In the 1977 treaty to turn the Canal over to Panama, it was agreed that the Canal would remain neutral, but with the deal they cut with China, Panama violated that agreement, and has probably been violating it for a while now.
Well said. I never cared for him, either but in this job he fits the bill.
I had to giggle a little when the MSM pearl-clutchers announced that Trump intended to invade. This is what he was after. It’s similar to what he’s after with respect to Greenland.
An end date and potential early termination dates would be entertaining to have.
One report I saw indicated one or two years from now, but possibly sooner. I don’t know what that means...
Curious that some factoid along those lines is not out and about.
Here’s what I’ve found so far; the ‘one or two years’ comes from the Charlie Kirk post about a third of the way down:

Thanks.
China has several Belt and Road memorandum of understanding with different countries. Haven't found the specific one between Panama and China.
