MEXICO CITY (AP) — President Claudia Sheinbaum suggested Tuesday that Mexico could retaliate with tariffs of its own, after U.S. President-elect Donald Trump threatened to impose 25% tariffs on Mexican goods if the country doesn’t stop the flow of drugs and migrants across the border.

President Claudia Sheinbaum responded to President-elect Trump’s threat to impose high tariffs, saying such a move would inflict damage on both countries.

By Sarah Morland and Brendan O'Boyle MEXICO CITY (Reuters) -Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday warned U.S. President-elect Donald Trump of dire economic consequences for both countries from tariffs and suggested possible retaliation following his threat of across-the-board tariffs of 25% on Mexico and Canada.

President-elect Trump says he will add a 25 percent tax on goods from Canada and Mexico on his first day in office.

Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, warned US President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday that his vow to impose high tariffs on all imported Mexican goods would inflict harm on both countries.

President Claudia Sheinbaum suggested Mexico could respond to Donald Trump’s threatened tariffs with levies of its own, warning the economic consequences would be dire.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has clapped back at President-elect Trump’s proposed 25% tariff on imported goods from Mexico, saying she would impose tariffs of her own on the U.S.

Claudia Sheinbaum said Mexico suffered from an influx of weapons smuggled in from the United States, and that drugs were a U.S. problem.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Mexico would retaliate if President-elect Donald Trump carries out his threats to slap a 25% tariff on Mexican and Canadian goods unless they address illegal migration and fentanyl trafficking.
