Sheinbaum thanks Trump, confirms new agreement

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has thanked Donald Trump for pausing tariffs on most goods from her country, after they were imposed earlier this week.

“We had an excellent and respectful call in which we agreed that our work and collaboration has given unprecedented result,” she says in a post on X in Spanish.

“We will continue to work together, especially around the issues of migration and security, which includes reducing the illegal crossing of fentanyl into the United States, as well as weapons into Mexico,” she adds.

Sheinbaum also confirms that the suspension will run until 2 April.
