Negotiations on Trade Tariffs with Trump Continue

Recent discussions have revealed ongoing negotiations between Trump’s administration and Mexican officials regarding trade tariffs. Despite some progress, there remains a lack of clarity about specific demands and implications for both countries' economies.


Negotiations on Trade Tariffs with Trump Continue

The Mexican government is in the midst of negotiations with representatives of the Trump administration, who demand specific measures to curb the trade war. The aim is to avoid public conflicts, and information is kept discreetly, with a financial focus.

The Mexican president hopes that Senator Rubio will have a greater influence on tariff issues and manage to moderate Trump's decisions. However, it has not yet been clear what the exact demand of the U.S. president is. The possibility of a response to the measures announced in Mexico is being considered, although certainty on this matter has not been achieved.

In this context, the influence of the Trump administration is observed on various fronts that appear to lack clear solutions, from the trade war with Mexico and Canada to situations in the Middle East and Europe. Despite this, a potential advancement in relations with Panama is highlighted, especially with the arrival of Black Rock for the management of the Canal.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been mentioned as a key figure in this juncture, trying to promote more rational decisions. However, there are discrepancies among American representatives, such as Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, who have divergent views on global trade.

Communication difficulties are evident, as in the case where Mexican officials had to explain in detail to Lutnick the implications of tariffs in the automotive sector. Meanwhile, Greer shows concern about potential increases in food prices due to tariffs.
