Mexican president says no tariff war with US after call with Trump

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum stated that her recent phone call with Donald Trump was positive and indicated there would be no tariff war between the US and Mexico. This follows Trump's earlier threat to impose a 25% tariff on Mexico if illegal immigration and fentanyl smuggling were not addressed. During the call, Sheinbaum clarified that she did not agree to close the US-Mexico border, despite Trump's claims. She emphasized that Mexico has its own strategies to manage migration and drug trafficking, which Trump acknowledged. Sheinbaum also discussed issues like American-made weapons entering Mexico and urged Trump to reconsider blockades against Cuba and Venezuela. She firmly rejected the idea of US military deployment in Mexico, asserting Mexico's sovereignty.
