Donald Trump announces revolutionary changes: Panama Canal, American Bay, and Mars targeted by the USA
Donald Trump, upon taking office as the 47th President of the United States, delivered an inaugural speech full of announcements and ambitious plans. Among them were proposals such as renaming the Gulf of Mexico, rebuilding American global dominance, and advancing space exploration.
In brief
Donald Trump, in his inaugural address as the 47th President of the United States, announced that the Panama Canal would be taken back, pointing to excessive transit fees for American ships and Chinese control over the route. Donald Trump also announced renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America and sending astronauts to Mars. The President of the United States announced a state of emergency on the southern border and in energy, the abolition of climate regulations and the creation of an External Revenue Service to collect tariffs.
The Panama Canal back under U.S. control?
One of the key points of the speech was the announcement of “taking back” the Panama Canal, which Trump claimed was unjustly handed over to Panama. The president emphasized that current transit fees are too high for American ships and that China’s control over the strategic transport route poses a significant threat. Trump called the decision to transfer the canal a “foolish gift” and pledged to restore full U.S. control over this critical area.
The Gulf of Mexico to become the American Gulf?
In an equally symbolic move, Donald Trump announced plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the American Gulf.
- Our success will be measured by the wars we end; I will be remembered as the bringer of peace - the president said, highlighting his focus on strengthening American identity and independence.
Mars on the horizon: USA as the leader in technology and innovation
Ambitious space plans include sending astronauts to Mars, where they would plant the American flag. Trump described this as “fulfilling America’s destiny among the stars.” Space exploration is set to become one of the cornerstones of his presidency, reinforcing the U.S. position as a leader in technology and innovation.
State of emergency at the border and in energy
Trump also announced a state of emergency at the southern border due to the issue of illegal immigration. Plans include deploying the military, continuing construction of the border wall, and designating drug cartels as terrorist organizations. The president also declared a state of emergency in energy policy, aiming to roll back climate regulations, increase oil and gas production, and revoke zero-emission vehicle standards.
Foreign trade and tariffs
The president pledged to “rebuild the trade system” by imposing tariffs and creating a new agency—the External Revenue Service—to oversee their collection. However, the details of these changes remain unclear.
