Panama's Political and Economic Crisis: Debates on Invasion and Corruption

Panama's Political and Economic Crisis: Debates on Invasion and Corruption

December 20th continues the debate on whether the U.S. invasion of Panama was necessary or if a special commando unit would have been enough to extract Commander Noriega. Also fading is the hope that this samba clan will ever pay the ridiculous $220 million fine imposed by an African country for a cooperation agreement.

He said he preferred to stand in line and buy his ham for 15 bucks rather than go to supermarkets where it costs up to 50 bucks. All there were were seafood and pints galore. Who is in charge of this? Lisímaco went for his ham. The one who formed his line as 'Pablo Pueblo' to buy his ham was Lisímaco yesterday at the Christmas fair in Porras Park.

Question of the day: Was there more corruption during the military dictatorship, or did the thermometer break with the arrival of democracy in the country? It was perverse until its last day.

Luchito already said his prosecutors are ready for the Odebrecht case hearing, which will surely be postponed again to January. Against the wall. The MEF and the DGI continue their mission to find the 'chen chen' (money) by any means necessary. The prosecutor's office is gaining strength for what's coming in 2026. The odyssey of solar panels. Users report that some electricity distribution companies are making their lives impossible to get them to stop installing solar panels on their homes.
