Thanks to Trump, BlackRock now owns the ports in Panama

BlackRock has agreed to buy two major ports on the Panama Canal from their Hong Kong-based owner as part of a $22.8bn deal, following pressure from Donald Trump over alleged Chinese influence at the vital waterway.
Under the agreement, the ports’ Hong Kong-based owner CK Hutchison would sell the business to a consortium including BlackRock, Global Infrastructure Partners and Terminal Investment Limited, according to a company statement on Tuesday. The group would acquire a 90 per cent stake in the company that owns and operates the two ports in Panama.
Trump has frequently alleged that “China is running the Panama Canal”, and rattled Panama when he threatened earlier this year to “take it back” under American control. The Trump administration has also demanded Panama reduce Chinese influence at the canal, claiming Beijing’s involvement in the ports had violated a treaty concerning its neutrality.

Wait… BLACKROCK is the good guy now?

BlackRock has the ports but they don’t have $22.8 billion they used to. The only way this has helped BlackRock is if the actual value is greater than $22.8 billion.

Try harder to hide what an idiot you are next time and not be so obvious.

I see the Woke Right has their talking point for the day?
Simple question, is America better off with Communist China or Black Rock owning the ports?

He agreed to sell them to me but the dollar tree-fitty in my account wasn't enough. I could only buy one of the taco stands.

They aren’t the “good guys”. But they are better than communist china owning the ports.

It was better when China owned it?

I loath Blackrock!!
They just bought out all of the Safe Harbor marinas worldwide for 5.5 billion!!
Where the frick do they get all their money from to pull all of these massive deals!
They need to be broken up, they own everything and it’s not good for anybody except the stockholders!
This is the same company pushing all the woke bullshite
