In recent weeks, there has been a significant discussion surrounding the Panama Canal, with President Donald Trump suggesting that Panama should return the canal to the United States. This proposal has raised eyebrows due to its potential implications and challenges.
The Panama Canal, a key waterway connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, was returned to Panama in 1999 following negotiations led by President Jimmy Carter. The decision to return the canal was seen as a step towards rectifying a legacy of US intervention in Central America.
