President-elect Donald Trump announced he spoke with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum about migration issues. He claimed they agreed to measures that would effectively close the U.S. southern border, calling the conversation "very productive." Sheinbaum confirmed the discussion, stating that Mexico is managing migrant caravans and enhancing security cooperation. She emphasized that these efforts are within Mexico's sovereignty. Trump previously threatened to impose a 25% tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico. However, it remains unclear how the recent conversation will affect his tariff plans. Illegal migration has decreased significantly, partly due to increased Mexican enforcement.
