Panama elects conservative who pl;ans to block illegal immigration to US
José Raúl Mulino, a last-minute conservative candidate in Panama’s 2024 presidential race, was elected in Sunday’s general election with a nearly ten percent lead over his closest rival.
Mulino, a 64-year-old lawyer and former minister of security in the country, campaigned on implementing a crackdown on migration by “closing” the dangerous Darien Gap jungle trail that Panama shares with Colombia, which thousands of migrants from South America and other regions use to reach the United States. Mulino has also vowed to improve Panama’s economy.

Mulino should at least slow the migration of illegals to the US. That is something Joe Biden has failed to do. A Trump election would also slow the flow of migrants to the US.
