Latin America caught in the US-China battle for influence

From the Panama Canal to Peru's rapidly expanding Chancay Port, Latin America is increasingly becoming a key arena in the growing competition between the United States and China.

In Panama, disputes over strategic ports and shipping routes have heightened tensions between Washington and Beijing. In Peru, major Chinese investment projects have sparked debate over economic dependence, sovereignty and regional security.

As both powers compete for influence, governments across Latin America face a difficult balancing act. China is now the largest trading partner for several countries in the region, while the United States remains the dominant political and security actor.

In this episode of Inside Latin America, Al Jazeera examines how Panama, Peru and other nations are navigating the pressures of an intensifying geopolitical rivalry.
