Calling on the Government of Panama to expel officials and interests of the People's Republic of China and terminate Chinese management of key Panamanian ports.

HRES 232 is a non-binding resolution calling on Panama to expel Chinese officials and end Chinese management of key Panamanian ports, specifically Balboa and Cristobal. It urges Panama to terminate agreements with Chinese-affiliated entities like Hutchison Ports and reaffirm the Panama Canal's neutrality under the 1977 Neutrality Treaty. The resolution also requests U.S. support for Panama to reduce reliance on Chinese infrastructure projects and develop alternatives. This addresses concerns about Chinese influence over strategic infrastructure, as raised by Panama's participation in China's Belt and Road Initiative.
