Back when he was inaugurated, President Donald Trump made it very clear he intended to take back control of the Panama Canal from the Chinese.
And contrary to what Dana Bash claimed, he's doing it without a military invasion:
Even media are calling this a win for Trump:
More from The Financial Times:
BlackRock has agreed to buy two major ports on the Panama Canal from their Hong Kong-based owner as part of a $22.8bn deal, following pressure from Donald Trump over alleged Chinese influence at the waterway.
In apparent reference to the ports, the US president has frequently alleged that “China is running the Panama Canal”, adding last month that “we’re going to take it back, or something very powerful is going to happen”.
Under the agreement, the ports’ Hong Kong-based owner CK Hutchison would sell the business to a consortium including BlackRock, Global Infrastructure Partners and Terminal Investment Limited, according to a company statement on Tuesday.
This is good news.
This is a huge win for Trump.
Farmland is next.
He's been President for a little over a month. This was fast.
If they can't spin it negatively, they'll ignore it.
Very good work.
NOPE.
