Panama’s President José Raúl Mulino has urged elected US President Donald Trump to continue funding for the repatriation of migrants crossing the dangerous Darién jungle from Colombia. During a press conference, Mulino highlighted a bilateral agreement with the Biden administration and expressed hope it would be maintained under Trump. Supported by a $6 million grant, Panama has successfully repatriated over 1,000 migrants, although challenges remain, particularly regarding migrants from Venezuela, whose repatriation is complicated by access restrictions imposed due to governmental tensions.
