U.S.-Panama deal. Following meetings between U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Panama’s security minister, Frank Abrego, the two sides agreed to allow U.S. troop deployments to several sites along the Panama Canal. However, Panamanian President Jose Raul Mulino clarified that the agreement does not authorize a permanent American base – rejecting a U.S. request – due to domestic opposition and legal constraints. All future deployments will require Panamanian approval.
