President Donald Trump said in an address to Congress that his administration was “reclaiming” the Panama Canal .

Trump was referencing a deal announced Tuesday for a consortium led by the U.S. investment management company BlackRock Inc. to buy a controlling stake in the company held by a Chinese group that operates ports at both ends of the canal.

Panama maintains that it has full control over the canal and that the operation of the ports did not amount to Chinese control.
