President Trump agreed to “immediately pause” the 25% tariff on Mexico for a month after a “very friendly” conversation with the country’s President Claudia Sheinbaum

This announcement came two days after President Trump signed three Executive Orders to impose tariffs against goods of the United States’ three largest trading partners—Canada, Mexico, and China.  President Sheinbaum agreed to send 10,000 soldiers to the U.S.-Mexico border to combat the flow of fentanyl and migrants.  President Sheinbaum further disclosed that the United States remains “committed to working to prevent the trafficking of high-powered weapons to Mexico.”  This one-month pause allows further negotiations between the two countries.
