Panamanians Commemorate Martyrs' Day, Assert Sovereignty Over Canal Amid Trump's Threats

Credited from: REUTERS

  • Hundreds of Panamanians marched to commemorate the deadly uprising against U.S. control of the Panama Canal in 1964.
  • The protests included an effigy burning of President-elect Donald Trump, who suggested military or economic measures regarding the canal.
  • The 1964 clashes resulted in the deaths of over 20 Panamanians and symbolized the struggle for sovereignty, leading to the canal's transfer in 1999.
  • Protesters insisted that "the canal is ours," with officials affirming Panama’s control and dismissing Trump’s statements.
  • Foreign Minister Javier Martinez-Acha emphasized that only Panamanian hands control the canal, reinforcing national pride and autonomy.
