President Biden spoke today with President José Raúl Mulino of Panama to congratulate him on a successful start to his new administration and emphasize our strong commitment to advancing the United States-Panama partnership based on shared democratic values.  The two leaders discussed joint efforts to address the challenges stemming from irregular migration through Panama, including the regularization of migrant populations and increased humane enforcement efforts. 

President Biden recognized President Mulino as a valued ally in advancing safe, orderly and humane migration throughout the hemisphere, and thanked him for the important steps that his government has taken in this regard so soon after his July 1 inauguration.  President Biden and President Mulino also discussed their shared concerns about the serious flaws that accompanied the vote-counting process following Venezuela’s July 28 election.  President Biden thanked President Mulino for his effort to advance democracy in both Panama and the hemisphere, including Panama’s efforts to mobilize regional support to restore democratic norms in Venezuela and condemn political repression.
