Reported about 15 hours ago

Panama is reopening discussions regarding the future of a contentious copper mine after its Supreme Court previously halted operations due to constitutional issues with its concession. President José Raúl Mulino acknowledges the mine's economic significance, indicating a potential restart despite strong opposition from environmental and civic groups who oppose its impact on local communities. The ongoing debates reflect a broader conflict between economic benefits and environmental concerns as protests continue against the mine's reopening.
