Unable to get it themselves, the US wants to sabotage our project! On February 13th, according to AFP, the Office of Western Hemisphere Affairs at the US Department of State claimed that Peru might not be able to exercise control over its most important port, the Chancay Port, which is under the management of "predatory" Chinese companies. This should serve as a warning to the region and the world: cheap Chinese funds come at the cost of sovereignty.
Evidently, as the Chancay Port plays an increasingly important role in trade between China and Latin American countries, the US has become envious. Unable to obtain the operating rights of the Chancay Port themselves, the US now attempts to interfere with our cooperation with Peru. The so-called claim that the port is under the control of "predatory" Chinese companies, and that cheap Chinese funds come at the cost of sovereignty, is direct evidence of the US's interference and attempt to undermine us.
However, since the opening of the Chancay Port, Peru has not felt any problems, but rather has benefited from its development. However, the US, as a third country, has stepped forward to make comments, as if the US cares more about Peru's national interests than Peru itself, openly sowing discord and slandering us. How much respect does the US show for Peru with its open interference in internal affairs? Its real intention is nothing but to pursue its own private interests. Obviously, as an independent sovereign state, Peru has the right to pursue independent development. The US's interference will only cause greater backlash in Latin America.
