Trump claims agreement with Mexico to stop migration through the country
wcvb.com —
President-elect Donald Trump announced he spoke with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, who agreed to stop migration through Mexico. Trump described the conversation as productive, claiming it effectively closes the U.S. southern border. Sheinbaum confirmed the discussion, stating that Mexico is managing migrant caravans and enhancing security cooperation. She emphasized that caravans are not reaching the U.S. border due to Mexico's efforts. Trump previously threatened to impose a 25% tariff on products from Canada and Mexico. Despite his claims, illegal migration has decreased significantly, partly due to existing cooperation between the U.S. and Mexico.
