Trump, Sheinbaum Agree To Pause U.S.-Mexico Tariffs For A Month

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced Monday that Mexico has agreed to send 10,000 troops to the U.S.-Mexico border in return for a one-month halt to President Donald Trump’s promised tariffs.

About twelve hours before the tariffs were scheduled to go into effect, Sheinbaum announced the move on social media Monday morning. During their conversation on Monday, Trump and Sheinbaum decided that the United States would increase its efforts to stop the flow of firearms into Mexico and that Mexico would do more to stop drug trafficking into the United States.

Sheinbaum added that discussions on broader trade and security problems were being initiated between U.S. and Mexican officials.

In his own post on Truth Social, Trump affirmed the agreement and called the chat with Sheinbaum a “very friendly conversation.”

“I just spoke with President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico. It was a very friendly conversation wherein she agreed to immediately supply 10,000 Mexican Soldiers on the Border separating Mexico and the United States. These soldiers will be specifically designated to stop the flow of fentanyl, and illegal migrants into our Country,” Trump wrote.

“We further agreed to immediately pause the anticipated tariffs for a one month period during which we will have negotiations headed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent, and Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, and high-level Representatives of Mexico. I look forward to participating in those negotiations, with President Sheinbaum, as we attempt to achieve a ‘deal’ between our two Countries,” he added.

Trump slapped 10% tariffs on China and 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico a few days before the agreement.

Trump claims that he did not agree with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during their Monday conversation. They will talk again later on Monday, he said.

The tariffs are scheduled to go into force on Tuesday at midnight.

By urging Canadians to “buy Canada” in reaction to the tariffs, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau betrayed the United States.

“Now is the time to choose products made right here in Canada,” Trudeau wrote on X. “Check the labels. Let’s do our part. Wherever we can, choose Canada.”

Trump also raised the possibility of halting aid to South Africa following the signing of a contentious land grab bill by the country’s president during his conversation with reporters on Sunday.
