Panamá-China Relations

The Republic of Panama officially recognized the People's Republic of China in 2017. Ever since then, there has been a constant parade of op-eds from think tanks about the potential risk of China's advance in Central America. We are joined by Sebastian Naranjo, a PhD candidate at Renmin University in Beijing and an Asia Desk Officer in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Panamá, to seek some truth from facts on this issue.

Why did Panamá cut diplomatic relations with Taiwan in favor of the PRC?
How central is the canal to politics in Panamá?
What tangible projects has the PRC assisted with in Panamá?
How relevant is Chinese culture in the daily lives on Panamanians?
Has Panama's relations with the USA soured in any way since 2017?

We discussed these questions and more!
