US delays tariffs on Mexican goods for one month after border deal. Mexico deploys troops to combat drug trafficking. Negotiations to continue.
Claudia Sheinbaum, the President of Mexico, announced that the US has postponed the imposition of 25% tariffs on imported goods from Mexico for one month following a border security agreement. Sheinbaum stated on social media that Mexico will immediately deploy 10,000 National Guard troops to combat drug trafficking, especially fentanyl, at the northern border. Karoline Leavitt, White House spokesperson, confirmed the one-month delay and stated that negotiations between the two countries will continue. This decision came after Donald Trump signed an order on Saturday to impose 25% tariffs on nearly all imported goods from Canada and Mexico.
