Panama Canal, Canada, Greenland - Donald Trump’s Christmas Wishlist

In his Christmas greetings, US President-elect Donald Trump repeated his call to acquire the Panama Canal and Greenland and annex Canada. In a series of posts on his social media platform 'Truth Social', Trump fired at "radical Left lunatics" and Canadian Prime MinisterPrime MinisterPrime Minister Justin Trudeau. He began by addressing the issue of the Panama Canal and making it clear that the US would take control.

"Merry Christmas to all, including to the wonderful soldiers of China, who are lovingly but illegally operating the Panama Canal, where we lost 38,000 people in its building 110 years ago, always making certain that the United States puts in billions of dollars in 'repair' money, but will have absolutely nothing to say about anything'," he wrote.

Later in the day, while announcing Kevin Marino Cabrera as the US Ambassador to the Republic of Panama, Trump said the country is "ripping" the US off on the Panama Canal, "far beyond their wildest dreams".
