Quick Summary

Eric Arturo Delvalle served as the president of Panama. He was appointed to the presidency in September 1983 after Colonel Manuel Antonio Noriega deposed the previous president, Nicolás Ardito Barletta, who had disagreed with Noriega. Delvalle's presidency was short-lived, as he attempted to dismiss Noriega in February 1988. This action led to Delvalle's own dismissal by the Noriega-dominated National Assembly, forcing him to seek refuge on a U.S. military base.1
