Biden urges Trump to reconsider tariffs on Mexico and Canada

U.S. President Joe Biden expressed hope that president-elect Donald Trump will reconsider his plan to impose tariffs on Mexico and Canada. Biden warned that such tariffs could harm relationships with these key allies. Trump announced his intention to impose tariffs until Mexico and Canada address drug and migration issues. This move may conflict with the existing U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade agreement. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum stated that her recent call with Trump did not specifically cover tariffs. She emphasized a strategy to manage migration before it reaches the U.S. border.
