Trump Praises Agreement with Mexico’s New President to Curb Migration

[Social Media]

 

President-elect Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that Mexico's newly inaugurated president, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, has committed to halting migration through her country into the United States. Trump described the conversation as highly productive, emphasizing its significance for addressing issues related to migration and illegal drug trafficking.  

 

“Just had a wonderful conversation with the new President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo,” Trump shared on Truth Social. “She has agreed to stop Migration through Mexico, and into the United States, effectively closing our Southern Border.”  

 

The discussion extended beyond migration, with Trump highlighting their dialogue on combating the flow of illegal drugs across the U.S.-Mexico border. “We also talked about what can be done to stop the massive drug inflow into the United States, and also, U.S. consumption of these drugs,” he wrote, concluding, “It was a very productive conversation!”  

 

Sheinbaum Pardo, 62, made history as Mexico’s first female president when she took office in October. A scientist and former mayor of Mexico City, she responded to Trump’s remarks with her own comments on social media. On X, formerly known as Twitter, she confirmed their collaborative efforts on migration and security.  

 

“I had an excellent conversation with President Donald Trump,” Sheinbaum Pardo wrote. “We discussed Mexico’s strategy on the migration phenomenon and I shared that caravans are not arriving at the northern border because they are being taken care of in Mexico.”  

 

She further detailed plans to strengthen security collaboration while respecting national sovereignty and elaborated on efforts to address drug consumption, particularly fentanyl, within Mexico. “We also discussed strengthening collaboration on security issues within the framework of our sovereignty and the campaign we are carrying out in the country to prevent the consumption of fentanyl,” she added.  

 

Trump has been vocal about leveraging tariffs as a means to pressure Mexico and other countries on issues like illegal immigration and drug smuggling. Earlier this week, he announced plans to impose a 25% tariff on Mexican imports if significant action wasn’t taken. Canada and China were also named in Trump’s broader tariff strategy, with proposed rates of 25% and 10%, respectively.  

 

Following his conversation with Sheinbaum Pardo, Trump expressed confidence in the immediate impact of Mexico’s commitment. “Mexico will stop people from going to our Southern Border, effective immediately,” he declared in a separate Truth Social post. “THIS WILL GO A LONG WAY TOWARD STOPPING THE ILLEGAL INVASION OF THE USA. Thank you!!!”  

 

The exchange marks a significant step in addressing key issues surrounding U.S.-Mexico relations, with both leaders signaling their readiness to collaborate on pressing challenges.

It's terrific most Americans voted for Trump instead of doing the same thing that never works. We need real leaders, not cup holders.

Finally a Mexican leader who is willing to work with the U.S. on major issues like trade, illegal drugs and illegal immigration.  Hopefully, the cartels don't stop her.
