The Panama Canal is the main threat to the US in a war with China because the Panama Canal is experiencing the worst drought periods since the 1950s. 2019 and 2023 have been the driest rainy seasons in Panama since decades. This drought has drastically reduced the Alajuela and Gatun lakes water reserves, and has consequently reduced the number of ships capable of traversing the Canal. This has huge economic consequences on American trade, but more importantly on the US military power projection in view of a war with China in the Indo-Pacific. In this video we will answer two main questions: What would happen if the Panama Canal drought periods will worsen in the future, and drastically diminish the number of US Navy ships through the canal during a conflict with China? What alternatives exists in case of a blockade of the canal?
