President Trump says he agreed to “immediately pause” tariffs on Mexico for a month after a “very friendly” conversation with the country’s president Claudia Sheinbaum.

“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,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“These soldiers will be specifically designated to stop the flow of fentanyl, and illegal migrants into our Country,” he wrote.

President Donald Trump will not impose tariffs on Mexico for at least a month as the two sides continue to negotiate on how to counter illegal immigration and drug trafficking at the border.

President-elect Donald Trump said Wednesday night that he had a “very productive conversation” with Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum, who agreed to end the flow of illegal immigrants entering the U.S. through the southern border.

exican President Claudia Sheinbaum addressed U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's renewed threats of steep tariffs this week, asserting that migrant caravans are no longer reaching the U.S.-Mexico border.

Her remarks underscored growing tensions as Trump plans to tighten immigration policies and impose a 25 percent tariff on Mexican imports. Trump declared that the tariffs would remain in place "until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country!"

A Nov. 28 Instagram post (direct link, archive link) includes a video of Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum speaking in Spanish at a news conference.

“Claudia Sheinbaum, the Mexican President, has just announced that migrant caravans will no longer be reaching the US border,” reads part of the post, which is a recording of a post first shared on X. “Isn't it strange how fast our problems are resolved when these other countries fear some kind of consequence. TRUMP said he would TARIFF Mexico. That's all it took."

How much power is too much power?

On Sunday, the governing coalition around the National Regeneration Movement — also known as Morena — of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador trounced the opposition alliance in thousands of federal, state and local races in Mexico’s biggest election ever.

Claudia Sheinbaum, Morena’s presidential candidate, secured at least 58.8 percent of the vote, unheard of since the advent of multiparty democracy at the turn of the century, beating her main rival, Xóchitl Gálvez, by a whopping 30 percentage points.

Claudia Sheinbaum has secured the Mexican presidency in a landslide victory to become the country's first female president in its over 200-year history.

The 61-year-old former climate scientist will succeed incumbent president Andrés Manuel López Obrador, also of the left-wing Morena party, who has held the office since 2018.

Newsweek has mapped Sheinbaum's victory in three charts.

On Sunday, Claudia Sheinbaum was elected president of Mexico. She will take office on Oct. 1. She is a leftist who blames capitalism for the millions of Mexicans who live in poverty.

Mexico's peso tumbled as much as 4.1% against the dollar on Monday and the local stock market fell over 2% after the ruling party scored a surprisingly strong election showing and looked poised for a super-majority that markets fear might bring constitutional change and diminish checks and balances.
