after the U.S. and regional allies accused Beijing of detaining Panama-flagged ships in a dispute tied to canal port control.<\/p>\n<p class=\"speakable\">In a joint statement with Bolivia, Costa Rica, Guyana, Paraguay and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/world\/world-regions\/caribbean-region\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trinidad and Tobago<\/a>, the U.S. said China\u2019s actions targeting Panama-flagged vessels were a &#8220;blatant attempt to politicize maritime trade&#8221; and infringe on regional sovereignty, framing the dispute as a broader strategic test over control of one of the world\u2019s most critical commercial arteries.<\/p>\n<p>While the Panama dispute centers on shipping detentions rather than a physical blockade, critics increasingly view it alongside battles over other strategic choke points, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/defense\/wars\/war-with-iran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Strait of Hormuz,<\/a> as part of a widening contest over whether Beijing or Washington will shape the rules governing global trade and energy corridors.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/irans-800m-oil-smuggling-scheme-uses-tankers-posing-iraqi-ships-dodge-blockade-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>IRAN\u2019S $800M OIL SMUGGLING SCHEME USES TANKERS POSING AS IRAQI SHIPS TO DODGE BLOCKADE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><picture><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/343\/192\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/686\/384\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"192\" width=\"343\"><source media=\"(min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/672\/378\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1344\/756\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"378\" width=\"672\"><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/931\/523\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1862\/1046\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"523\" width=\"931\"><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/720\/405\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1440\/810\/gettyimages-2201491120-scaled.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"405\" width=\"720\"><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>\n<div class=\"info\">\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p><span>Containers and cranes at the Port of Balboa at the Pacific entrance of the Panama Canal in Panama City, Panama, Feb. 25, 2025.<\/span> <!----><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The confrontation follows Panama\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/judiciary\/supreme-court\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Supreme Court<\/a> decision earlier in 2026 to invalidate the legal framework behind Hong Kong-based CK Hutchison\u2019s long-held control of the Balboa and Cristobal terminals flanking the Panama Canal, a choke point that handles roughly 5% of global maritime trade.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>U.S. regulators have monitored nearly 70 Panama-flagged vessels detained by Chinese authorities since March 8, according to Reuters \u2014 a surge American officials say appears designed to retaliate against Panama and pressure global shipping.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;China has used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/world\/conflicts\/iran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Iran<\/a> to destabilize the Middle East. In effect, Iran has been China\u2019s proxy,&#8221; China expert Gordon Chang told Fox News Digital, arguing Beijing\u2019s actions in Panama fit a broader global pattern in which China uses economic leverage, trade pressure and regional partners to expand influence while condemning similar tactics from Washington.<\/p>\n<p>Chang said Beijing is now facing growing resistance as the U.S. increasingly moves not only against China directly, but also against governments and geopolitical flash points he argues have strengthened Beijing\u2019s hand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Trump apparently decided that he would counter this sly tactic by taking China\u2019s proxies \u2014 Venezuela, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/world\/world-regions\/cuba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cuba<\/a> and Iran \u2014 off the board,&#8221; Chang said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/house-republicans-introduce-bill-repurchase-panama-canal-after-trump-raises-concerns-chinese-control\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>HOUSE REPUBLICANS INTRODUCE BILL TO REPURCHASE PANAMA CANAL AFTER TRUMP RAISES CONCERNS OF CHINESE CONTROL<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-ct inline\">\n<div class=\"m\"><picture><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/343\/192\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/686\/384\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"192\" width=\"343\"><source media=\"(min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1023px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/672\/378\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1344\/756\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"378\" width=\"672\"><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px) and (max-width: 1279px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/931\/523\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1862\/1046\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"523\" width=\"931\"><source media=\"(min-width: 1280px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/720\/405\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1, https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1440\/810\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1 2x\" height=\"405\" width=\"720\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1200\/675\/panama-canal-1.jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1\" alt=\"Aerial view of the port of Rodman in Panama City showing docks and ships.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>\n<div class=\"info\">\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<p><span>An aerial view shows the port of Rodman in Panama City Jan. 30, 2026.<\/span> <span>(Martin Bernetti\/AFP)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>He also framed pressure on Iran and threats to the Strait of Hormuz as part of a larger strategic effort aimed at both Tehran and Beijing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Closing the Strait of Hormuz is a two-fer, starving Iran\u2019s regime and shaking China\u2019s already fragile economy,&#8221; Chang said. &#8220;Trump is using energy to reorder the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chang also accused Beijing of hypocrisy over trade.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;China\u2019s Communists invented hypocrisy.
