WASHINGTON – President Trump stated in a social media post today that Mexico will not be obligated to pay tariffs on goods covered by the trade agreement between the two countries and Canada until April 2.
Trump said Thursday on his Truth Social platform that he suspended the tariffs on Mexico until April 2 "as an accommodation, and out of respect for, President Sheinbaum. Our relationship has been a very good one, and we are working hard, together, on the Border, both in terms of stopping Illegal Aliens from entering the United States and, likewise, stopping Fentanyl."
Trump has not confirmed whether Canada will also be suspended. This latest move marks Trump's second reversal in two days regarding his tariffs. On Wednesday, he indicated that he would temporarily exempt carmakers from the 25% import taxes just one day after implementation.
