Each country has the right to decide who receives with open arms and, of course, who it rejects. In the case of the United States, the nation has decided to intensify its rejection of impunity for corruption in Central America, including Panama. The new measures allow the authorities of that country to cancel the visa to those they consider to be participants in corruption.

This punishment will also be applied to the close family of the allegedly corrupt and, changing the current practice, will be publicly identified businessmen, politicians and officials who have been subject to these measures.

 In our world, this amounts to a condemnation of those that do not occur in our justice system. It is easy to rule out the new measure as another American interference, or as a unilateral action of power. For those affected by these restrictions to their shopping trips, entertainment days, business meetings or studies of their children, the measure may get them to think twice before stealing from the national treasure. Increasingly, the siege of the corrupt is narrowed, so that the crime does not pay- LA PRENSA, Dec. 8
