U.S. Defense Secretary Heng塞斯 said in an article today (April 9): "President Mullino of Panama, it is my honor to talk with you today. Your and your country's hard work are having a positive impact. Strengthening security cooperation will make our two countries safer, stronger and more prosperous."
