Panama's Sovereignty Amidst Psychological Operations

The government seeks to inform the public about the reality of the country and the psychological operations from abroad to pressure and misinform. Among the mentioned issues are drugs, migration, and international terrorism. According to their spokespeople, the intelligence approach of the embassies in the region is key to these operations.

Lawyer, teacher, and mediator Luis Carlos Samudio G. expresses his concern about the impact of stress on the nation. There is a warning about disinformative psychological operations aiming to destabilize the country and break agreements with China. A call is made to maintain calm in the face of external provocations and intimidation.

The Panama Canal, achieved through generational agreements like the Torrijos-Carter of 1977, is crucial for global trade. It is highlighted that the United States perceives the canal as a threat to its economic interests, resorting to Machiavellian strategies. The history of military intervention in 1989 is evoked to alert about the possible intentions of external actors.

Therefore, a call is made for caution in interactions with those who seek to impose their will in a radical manner. National sovereignty and transparency in decisions are priorities for the government and the country's allies. Threats from abroad still persist, although the existence of weapons referenced in the psychological operations has not been publicly revealed.
