Panama’s President Jose Raul Mulino responded fiercely, asserting the nation’s sovereignty and rejecting any U.S. claims over the canal.
What does this mean for U.S.-Panama relations, and could it spark a major diplomatic showdown?

Speaking after talks with Donald Trump and Slovak PM Robert Fico, Putin contrasted Trump’s “new approach” with Biden’s policies, stressing that Ukraine’s EU path may be possible but NATO membership remains a hard red line. The move has ignited speculation about a potential geopolitical shift in the Ukraine war.

The U.S. military struck a Venezuelan vessel in the Caribbean, killing 11 Tren de Aragua gang members, as confirmed by President Trump. The strike, targeting a drug-carrying boat in international waters, escalates tensions with Venezuela. Trump claims the gang operates under President Maduro, who denounced the U.S. naval buildup as a "criminal threat" and accused Trump of seeking regime change. Venezuela questions the strike video’s authenticity, while the U.S. denies invasion plans, focusing on drug trafficking.

A U.S. missile cruiser has crossed the Panama Canal, heading toward the Caribbean in what many fear is a prelude to a wider conflict with Venezuela. The USS Lake Erie entered the canal late Friday night and began its eight-hour journey toward the Atlantic, joining a massive U.S. naval deployment near Venezuelan waters. Washington has already stationed eight warships, thousands of Marines, and even a nuclear submarine close to Venezuela’s coast. While U.S. officials claim the mission is aimed at combating drug cartels, critics say the overwhelming firepower suggests a hidden regime change agenda. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has defiantly warned that the United States cannot invade his country, mobilizing 15,000 troops, drones, and naval assets in response. Caracas’s UN envoy mocked Washington, declaring: “No one fights drug cartels with nuclear submarines.” With the U.S. doubling its bounty on Maduro to $50 million, tensions are nearing breaking point.
