Trump Envoy Predicts Imminent Change in Cuba: ‘We Can Be Very Creative’

Mauricio Claver-Carone is the president's special envoy for Latin America .

He served as the Treasury Department and National Security Council during Trump 's first term.

He was ejected from the Inter-American Development Bank in 2022 over misconduct charges that he denied.

"This is a non-imperialistic expansionism," he said, even as he went on to hint that the administration would get “very creative” in pushing change inside Cuba .

The U.S. feels that Panama has violated that treaty from a security perspective because all of the most important logistics, telecommunications, surrounding infrastructure of the canal has been penetrated by Chinese entities.

President Mulino in Panama said the State Department lied about winning free passage through the canal for.

The United States wants to make sure that there is an agreement and an understanding between both nations.

The No. 1 driver of the Panama Canal is Chinese exports to the U.S. The Federal Maritime Commission has legal authority under the Merchant Marine Act to conduct an analysis of this.

The president sees that almost as a distressed asset and an opportunity.

The first Trump administration created a tremendous amount of credibility.
