Mexico gets another tariff reprieve after president's "respectful" call with Trump

U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday he will temporarily waive tariffs on products from Mexico that fall under the North American free trade agreement (CUSMA), two days after launching a continental trade war.

“This agreement is until April 2nd. I did this as an accommodation, and out of respect for, President Sheinbaum,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“We can disagree and talk about issues on which we disagree, but it should be very much emphasized that it was a very, very respectful call, as have been the other three calls in which we have spoken," Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum said after the reprieve was announced.
