In a desperate effort to protect the national economy from Donald Trump’s protectionist policies, a delegation of Mexican business leaders has arrived in Washington, D.C., to negotiate the removal of the 25% tariffs that threaten to destabilize trade between Mexico and the United States.
This measure, seen by many as a direct attack on free trade and established economic relations, has put the Mexican business community on high alert.
President Trump has stated that these tariffs are a response to the alleged lack of control over migration and drug trafficking from Mexico. However, these duties could lead to a significant increase in prices for American consumers and a drastic decline in Mexican exports, affecting key sectors such as automotive and manufacturing.
The business mission, led by prominent private sector figures, aims to prevent a trade war that could be detrimental to both nations. The negotiations are seen as a last resort to keep supply chains intact, which have driven the region’s economic growth.
Conservative media have highlighted the need for a more pragmatic and less punitive approach from the United States. The pressure is mounting, and online reactions reflect a mix of hope and fear.
Several videos on the matter are available:
The conservative community in both Mexico and the U.S. hopes that these negotiations will not only prevent an economic crisis but also reaffirm the importance of free and fair trade.
The outcome of these talks could mark a turning point in bilateral relations between two of the world’s largest trading partners.
