US President Trump Suspends Tarrifs On Mexico This decision comes after his conversation with Mexico’s President, Claudia Sheinbaum.
Trump highlighted that Mexico will not incur tariffs on any products included in the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
He also noted that his rapport with Sheinbaum has been quite constructive, prioritizing their collaborative efforts to curb illegal immigration into the United States.
“After speaking with President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico, I have adhered that Mexico will not be required to pay tariffs on anything that falls under the USMCA Agreement.
“This concord is in place until 2 April. I have done this as the accommodation and out of respect for President Sheinbaum. Our dependency has been a very good one, and we are working hard together on the border, both in terms of stopping illegal immigrants from entering the United States and, likewise, preventing the trafficking of fentanyl.
“Thank you to President Sheinbaum for your hard work and cooperation,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
Meanwhile, on Wednesday, a divided U.S. Supreme Court dismissed former President Donald Trump’s request to halt the disbursement of approximately $2 billion in alien aid.
In a 5-4 decision, the justices defended the lower court’s governing that mandated the administration to fulfill payments for completed contracts.
This marks the court’s first major governing on a legal dispute involving Trump since his backtrack to office.
The justices revealed that the federal judge who ordered the continuation of payments for contracts with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the State Department “should illuminate what obligations the Government must fulfill.”
Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a Trump appointee, sided with the court’s three liberal justices, forming the majority opinion.
Justice Samuel Alito, in a dissent joined by three other conservative justices, strongly challenged the governing.
