The Us should have the control of the Panama Canal because of variuos reasons. One of them is that the US constructed the Canal. It is their right to keep it. Now the president that said to give it to Panama is very stsupid because it is important to have that passage for commerce!
The US controlled the Panama Canal Zone directly from 1903 until the exclusive US-led government was abolished on October 1, 1979, as a term of the Torrijos–Carter Treaties of 1977. From 1979 until December 31, 1999٫ the canal itself was under joint U.S.–Panamanian control. It was on DECEMBER 31, 1999 that full control of the canal was restored to Panama.
The United States, under Theodore Roosevelt, bought out the French equipment and excavations, and began work on May 4, 1904, after helping Panama achieve independence from Colombia. In exchange for U.S. help in separating Panama from Colombia and setting it up as a independent nation, Panama would give the United States control of the Panama Canal Zone
