MIAMI - President-elect Donald Trump said on Christmas Day that he has selected Miami-Dade County Commissioner Kevin Marino Cabrera to become the next U.S. ambassador to Panama.
The announcement came as Trump is threatening to retake control of the Panama Canal because, according to him, the Central American nation is "ripping off" American ships that pass through the waterway.
Posting a message on his social network Truth Social, the president elect said Cabrera will do a "FANTASTIC job representing our Nation's interests in Panama!"
