Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum recently addressed President-elect Donald Trump after he announced plans to impose a 25% tariff on all goods from Mexico and Canada to pressure them on curbing drug trafficking and illegal migration. In a sharply worded letter, Sheinbaum warned that such measures would harm both countries' economies, causing inflation and job losses. She highlighted the interconnectedness of the U.S. and Mexican economies, noting that many major American companies operate in Mexico.
She also stated that for every tariff imposed, Mexico would respond in kind, suggesting a potential trade escalation. Sheinbaum advocated for cooperation rather than threats, emphasizing shared responsibilities, such as the flow of U.S.-made weapons into Mexico and U.S. drug consumption driving violence in her country. The Mexican president called for dialogue to address these challenges effectively
