Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum deftly guided her country through the worst of Trump’s tariffs


Good morning! The United States will host the 2031 Women’s World Cup, David has a new strategy, and the president of Mexico is the winner of the customs tariff week.

Almost safe. T-Day hit the global economy like a ton of bricks. President Donald Trump has announced the details of his definition – a 10 % “baseline” tariff on all imports to the United States as well as an additional tariff ranging between 20 % and 54 % for countries that Trump called “the worst criminals”. The president says that customs duties aim to return manufacturing functions to the United States, which is the declaration of “economic independence”. However, in one day, stocks lost $ 3.1 trillion in market value. The main indexes decreased 6 %. The chances of the recession reached 35 %.

But two countries were rescued by the weight of Trump’s revenge. Canada and Mexico have not seen any additional tariff – Mexico has Claudia Shinbom president for her thanks.

the Washington Post “The World Trump Whisper” was surveyed in early March after negotiating a delay in the customs tariff on her country. It seems that the American -based American president has been respectful of Shinbaum, even with the contraction of relations with other world leaders. In March, Trump said he decided to delay the definitions “in respect of President Shinbom.” It was called “a very wonderful woman”. Mexicans expressed his appreciation for the Shinbum negotiations, as thousands gathered in March to their joy; I told them, “We cannot give up our sovereignty.” Its local approval rate increased to 85 %.

Yesterday, Shinbom attributed her relationship with Trump in favor of emerging Mexico, not safe, from the new tariff system for Trump. She said on Thursday: “This relates to the good relationship that we built between the Mexican government and the United States, which is based on respect.” (Trump negotiated a commercial agreement with Canada and Mexico during his first term)

Of course, Mexico has commercial partners alongside the United States and will feel the impact of definitions as part of the global economy. Some companies have already stopped production in facilities in Mexico while re -evaluating global supply chains. Sheinbauum, who took a braid from the American playing book, “Plan Mexico” to promote the country’s local production. However, Shinboma’s ability to move in the dangerous Trumporld waters that made her stand out – just six months after she took office as the first president in Mexico.
