President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico took steps sought by President Trump, including sending troops to the border and cracking down on drug cartels. The tariffs went into effect anyway.

After a call with President Sheinbaum, Trump announced that most Mexico imports will not be subject to tariffs until at least early April.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum told cheering crowds Sunday that she is confident that her country has headed off the threat of US tariffs for now.
