Trump Pauser Mexico Tariffs by Month After Border Troop Agreement

President Donald Trump said on Monday that he paused for a month that his new 25% tariff rates on goods imported from Mexico after the country’s president agreed to immediately send 10,000 soldiers to the US border to prevent drug trafficking from Mexico.

Trump in a social media post said that during the break “will have negotiations” about customs “led by State Secretary Marco Rubio, State Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Secretary Howard Lutnick and high -level representatives.”

He also said “I look forward to participating in these negotiations” with Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum “when we try to achieve a ‘agreement’ between our two countries.”

The message came two days after Trump dropped 25% duties on goods from Mexico and Canada, and 10% tariffs on goods imported from China.

Sheinbaum over the weekend threatened retaliatory guares on goods imported from the United States, and not goals, but had not revealed the rate for the tariffs.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Saturday night that his country would implement a 25% duty against $ 155 billion in US goods in return for Trump’s duty, which had been announced hours earlier.

China has said it will challenge customs duties in the World Trade Organization.

US shares that had opened trade lower Monday regained most of these losses on news about the break on customs on goods from Mexico.

Trump and Sheinbaum spoke on Monday morning prior to the announcement of the break.

Both he and sheinbaum said that the Mexican National Guard troops, which she sends to the border with the United States, want the mission to stop drug trafficking from Mexico, especially the one for the deadly opioid fentanyl.

Trump also wrote that the Mexican troops will aim to stop the stream “of migrants into our country.”

Sheinbaum first revealed the break at Customs at Mexico in a post on X -Social Media Side.

“We had a good conversation with President Trump with great respect for our relationship and sovereignty; we reached a number of appointments,” she wrote Sheinbaum in the tweet, according to a translation from Spanish.

She also wrote, “The United States are obliged to work to prevent trading in high -powered weapons for Mexico.”

Trump had not mentioned an obligation to cushion the flow of weapons in his truth’s social post about his conversation with Sheinbaum.

At a news conference on Monday morning, Sheinbaum was asked if the question of migrants and deportations from the United States was dealt with during her call with Trump.

“We will always support and defend them. Always,” the Sheinbaum replied.

She also said that Mexican officials in discussions with the US Department of State “work hard to defend our Mexican brothers and sisters.”
