Trump and Sheinbaum reach border agreement to curb migration and trafficking

President-elect Donald Trump announced a new agreement with Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum to stop migration across the southern U.S. border. This deal aims to reduce migrant caravans and drug trafficking into the United States. Trump stated that the agreement would take effect immediately, claiming it would help stop illegal migration. He did not provide specific strategies for addressing drug smuggling. This announcement follows Trump's threats to impose tariffs on Mexican imports if stronger measures were not taken. Sheinbaum previously warned against such tariffs, advocating for cooperation instead of threats to address migration and drug issues.
