Secretary of State Marco Rubio appeared to escalate the Trump administrationâs confrontation with Panama on Sunday, telling its leader that President Trump had determined that Chinese âinfluence and controlâ over the Panama Canal threatens the waterway and demanding âimmediate changes,â according to the State Department.

Panamaâs president, Jose Raul Mulino, provided a different account of the discussion, saying after the meeting that he did not believe Mr. Rubio had conveyed a threat that Mr. Trump might move to reclaim the American-built shipping route. He said he saw little risk of such an intervention.

But President Trump, speaking to reporters at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland about the canal on Sunday, said that âweâre going to take it back, or something very powerful is going to happen.â

The State Departmentâs summary of the meeting in Panama City, Mr. Rubioâs first with a foreign leader since becoming secretary of state, struck a tone that was sometimes aggressive. It said Mr. Rubio had told his host that Mr. Trump had made a âpreliminary determinationâ that Chinaâs government exercised control over the canal.
