President Trump granted Mexico and Canada a 30-day reprieve on U.S. tariffs after both nations agreed to intensify efforts to block illicit drugs and migrants.

President Trump and Mexican President Sheinbaum said they agreed to send more troops to the border and tackle U.S. arms smuggling into Mexico in exchange for a pause on tariffs.

The last-minute deal had echoes of Trump's first administration, when he threatened Mexico with tariffs and Sheinbaum Pardo's predecessor Andrés Manuel López Obrador defused the threat, sending thousands of troops under his newly created National Guard to deter migrants from crossing the border.
