State Dept.: Rubio's Central America Trip to Counter China

Tuesday, 28 January 2025 05:42 PM EST

Secretary of State Marco Rubio's trip to Central America is partially about countering China, a State Department spokesperson told Fox Business on Tuesday.

"Part of this trip is about countering China," the spokesperson said in the interview.

Rubio was scheduled to visit Panama and four other countries in Central America and the Caribbean starting this week during his first overseas trip.

President Donald Trump has put immigration at the center of his foreign policy agenda and made a push for Washington to take back the Panama Canal in comments that have angered Panama.
