President Jimmy Carter agreed to relinquish control of the Panama Canal as part of a broader effort to improve U.S.-Latin American relations and promote self-determination in the region. The negotiations led to the Torrijos-Carter Treaties, which aimed to transfer control of the canal to Panama by the end of 1999. Carter believed this move would enhance U.S. credibility and foster goodwill among Latin American countries, acknowledging the historical grievances stemming from U.S. intervention in the region. Ultimately, the decision was also grounded in a desire for a peaceful resolution and stability in Central America.
