Trump says Mexico’s president has ‘agreed to stop’ migrants crossing into US through her country


US President-elect, Donald Trump said Wednesday that he has received assurances from Mexico’s new president that she will “stop migration” though her country and into the US.

 


Trump announced earlier this week that he planned to slap a 25% tariff on Mexican imports to get the country to crack down on illegal immigration and drug smuggling.

 


Canada and China would also be hit with 25% and 10% tariffs, respectively, as part of the executive order, Trump said.


“Just had a wonderful conversation with the new President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.  “She has agreed to stop Migration through Mexico, and into the United States, effectively closing our Southern Border,” he added.

 


Trump, 78, noted that he and Sheinbaum Pardo also discussed illegal drugs coming into the US from south of the border during their “very productive conversation.”

 

We also talked about what can be done to stop the massive drug inflow into the United States, and also, U.S. consumption of these drugs,” he wrote.


“It was a very productive conversation!”
