Surely another of the presidential meetings that will not be forgotten due to its peculiar character, is the one that the United States President, Donald Trump, has just starred with his Panamanian counterpart, Carlos Varela. During the same, Trump gave the impression that he wanted his colleague to praise him for the construction of that canal … which took place a century ago.
As reported by People, the controversial US president, commented during this meeting: “We have many things to discuss. We are going to spend a lot of time (together) today,”he added,“The Panama Canal is very good. I think we did a good job building it, right? We did a good job."
The Panamanian dignitary - neither short nor lazy - did not take long to put in context the time when this happened: “Yes. A hundred years ago.
Netizens, meanwhile, have been quick to imitate the Panamanian president and have turned to the networks to update Trump on the matter. “The Panama Canal has been open for more than one hundred years. And the United States relinquished control almost 20 years ago,”read a tweet.
Others took advantage of the occasion to make fun of tweets like this: "Trump has just taken credit for building the Panama Canal, now he is upset with the ghost of Teddy Roosvelt." While others even joked about it."
Nor were those more serious, such as that of the CBS correspondent in the White House, Mark Knoller, who immediately sent a tweet remembering that in the construction of this wonderful engineering structure, thousands left their lives. “In 1904 the United States took over the construction of the Panama Canal. 5,600 people died from illness and accidents. The canal locks were later expanded."
Apparently the reactions to Trump's impasse are only just beginning, since mockery of the Panamanian president has also begun to emerge, who during all these statements did not stop smiling.
