Panamanian president José Raúl Mulino said his country would not renew its agreement with China's Belt and Road Initiative following a visit from Secretary of State Marco Rubio, a move that will make it the first Latin American country to leave the initiative.

I think this was an easy sell by Rubio. Panama has almost no history with China and well over 100 years with the US.
Plus, I believe Panama knew that to go 'belt and road' was a loss of their sovereignty. All they had to do was look to the other countries, especially in Africa, divesting themselves from China.
