Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that the US will pause tariffs on Mexican goods for one month after a phone call with US President Donald Trump. As part of the agreement, Mexico will deploy 10,000 National Guard troops along the US border to combat drug trafficking. Trump confirmed the pause, which comes amid growing trade tensions. Mexico had been negotiating to avoid economic disruptions caused by Trump's proposed tariffs. The move provides temporary relief but leaves uncertainty over long-term trade relations. Further negotiations are expected before the deadline.
