Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum and US President Donald Trump have agreed to a month-long pause on threatened tariffs on Mexican exports. This decision follows Sheinbaum's revelation on social media of their productive conversation. In a bid to combat drug trafficking, Sheinbaum stated that 10,000 National Guard troops would be sent to the border. In exchange, Trump mentioned US efforts to curb firearm trafficking to Mexico. The tariff pause serves to alleviate trade tensions as Trump campaigns on domestic industry protection, emphasizing urgency in border control.
We had a good conversation with President Trump with great respect for our relationship and sovereignty. As a result of their discussion, Mexico would send 10,000 National Guard troops.
These soldiers will be specifically designated to stop the flow of fentanyl, and illegal migrants into our Country. The tariff pause staves off at least temporarily one front of a brewing trade war.
