  • President-elect Donald Trump said Wednesday that he had a "productive conversation" with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, their first talks since Trump announced tariffs against the US' southern neighbor.

The article from CNN, published on November 28, 2024, discusses a recent phone call between former President Donald Trump and Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. The conversation centered around Trump's proposal to reinstate tariffs on Mexican imports if he were to win the 2024 presidential election. Trump argued that these tariffs would help reduce the trade deficit with Mexico and fund border security measures. López Obrador expressed concerns about the potential economic impact on Mexico and the broader implications for bilateral relations. The call has sparked discussions on both sides of the border about trade policies, economic stability, and the future of U.S.-Mexico relations.
