Trump and Mexico's president reach deal to curb migration and strengthen border security

President-elect Donald Trump announced a deal with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to stop migration through Mexico, which he claims will effectively close the U.S. southern border. This follows his threats to impose tariffs on Canada and Mexico. Sheinbaum confirmed the conversation, stating that Mexico is managing migrant caravans and enhancing security cooperation. She emphasized that these efforts are part of Mexico's strategy to address migration issues. Illegal migration has decreased significantly, with U.S. border apprehensions at four-year lows. This decline is attributed to increased Mexican enforcement, which has reduced arrivals by 40% since December.
