President-elect Donald Trump announced he spoke with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, who agreed to enhance efforts to stop migration through Mexico. Trump described the conversation as productive and claimed it would effectively close the U.S. southern border. Sheinbaum confirmed the discussion, stating that Mexico is managing migrant caravans and focusing on security cooperation. This comes amid Trump's threats to impose new tariffs on products from Canada and Mexico. Illegal migration has decreased significantly, with U.S. officials attributing this to increased Mexican enforcement. Arrivals at the U.S.-Mexico border have dropped 40% since December, despite Trump's claims of a crisis.
