Trump's ‘stop migration’ agreement with Mexican president to effectively close Southern border and hamper drug inflow

Hindustan Times  

Two days after President-elect Donald Trump threatened to impose sweeping new tariffs on Canada and Mexico as part of his effort to crack down on illegal immigration and drugs, he said he spoke with the Mexican president and she “agreed to stop Migration through Mexico." US President-elect Donald Trump said November 27, 2024 that Mexico's leader, Claudia Sheinbaum, had agreed to "stop" migration during a conversation between the pair, "effectively closing" the border between their countries. In a post on his Truth Social account Wednesday evening, Trump said this was “effectively closing our Southern Border.” He called it a “very productive conversation!” Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that she spoke with Trump, calling it an “excellent conversation.” “We discussed Mexico’s strategy on migration issues, and I told him the caravans are not reaching the northern border, because Mexico is taking care of them,” Sheinbaum wrote on social media. Illegal migration across the Mexico border is down in part because the Biden administration secured some stepped up cooperation on stemming migration from Mexico — the sort Trump seems to be celebrating.
