The Trump administration is framing the President’s vow to take back the Panama Canal as an economic investment, not “imperialistic expansion.” Mauricio Claver-Carone, Trump’s special envoy for Latin America, spoke at length in an interview this week with Politico.
Here & Now’s Scott Tong speaks with Ali Velshi, MSNBC anchor and economic correspondent, about the context of how the Panama Canal plays into Trump’s broader strategy in the Americas.
This segment airs on February 13, 2025. Audio will be available after the broadcast.
