After winning the US elections, Donald Trump has received a threat from a country. This means a new war may begin after Trump is sworn in on January 20. In fact, Mexico has told the United States to be fully prepared to take retaliatory measures if Donald Trump increases tariffs on imports. This means that after Trump is sworn in in January, if he imposes tariffs on goods from Mexico, the possibility of a trade war will increase. A day earlier, Donald Trump had announced that, to stop the entry of illegal drugs into the United States, he would increase tariffs on three countries: Mexico, Canada and China. We also tell you what current Mexico has said.
Mexico’s response to Trump
Amid newly elected US President Donald Trump’s threat to impose a 25 percent customs tariff on Mexico, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum also warned of retaliatory actions. Trump, who won the recently concluded US presidential election, has threatened that his administration will impose a 25 percent tariff on Mexican goods if the neighboring country does not curb the movement of drugs and migrants across the border. Trump will take the reins of the government on January 20 of next year. In her reaction to this threat, Mexican President Sheinbaum said Tuesday that she is ready to talk about related issues. But he said drug trafficking is a problem in the United States.
The trade war may begin
Sheinbaum said that one tariff after another will be imposed and this will continue until common businesses are put at risk. He was referring to American automotive companies whose production plants are also present in Mexico. He said Mexico has done a lot to stop the movement of migrants and now migrant caravans do not reach the border with the United States. Along with this, the Mexican President also said that Mexico has worked to stop the flow of deadly drugs such as fentanyl, despite the fact that it is a public health and consumer problem in American society.
