Mexico’s Economy Minister Graciela Marquez is going to meet US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross in Washington on Monday to discuss Trump’s tariff threats. Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard will also be in Washington on Wednesday for the issue.
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador expected “good results” from the meetings. And he said on Saturday that “the main thing is to inform about what we’re already doing on the migration issue, and if it’s necessary to reinforce these measures without violating human rights, we could be prepared to reach that deal.”
Lopez Obrador also insisted that Mexico would not pursue trade war with the US. And, “we’re doing all we can to reach a deal through dialogue… we’re not going to get into a trade war, a war of tariffs and of taxes.”
