China and the US Clash Over Central America

Washington, USAThu Nov 27 2025
China and the US are at odds again. This time, it's about Central America. The US has a new rule. It limits visas for people from Central America who work with China. The US says these people are threats. They say these people are working for the Chinese government. And they say these people are causing trouble in the region. China is not happy. They say the US is breaking international rules. They say the US is using visas as a weapon. China says they help Central America. They say they bring jobs and money to the region. China says the US should not interfere. They say Central America is not a US playground. The US has not said much. They have not said how many visas they have taken away. They have not said who is affected. But one thing is clear. The US is worried. They are worried about China's growing power in Latin America. Latin America has always been close to the US. But now, China is making friends there too. Panama is one of the countries involved. The Panamanian president said the US threatened to cancel visas. They threatened to cancel visas of Panamanian officials. This shows the tension is real. It shows the US is serious about stopping China's influence. This is not just about visas. It's about power. It's about who controls Latin America. The US has always been the boss. But now, China is challenging that. They are offering money and jobs. They are offering a new friend. And the US is not happy about it.

    How does the Chinese Embassy's statement align with the principles of sovereign equality and non-interference?
    If visas are turned into political leverage, can we expect a new reality show called 'Visa Wars'?
