Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum says that Mexico will not retaliate with tariffs against the United States, as President Donald Trump prepares to announce sweeping new trade measures. Sheinbaum stated that Mexico will unveil a broader economic strategy aimed at strengthening the country’s position no matter what happens.

Speaking at her daily morning news conference, Sheinbaum reaffirmed Mexico’s commitment to continental free trade and emphasized her focus on stability and cooperation. “Let’s see what announcement they make, but we have a plan to strengthen the economy under any circumstance,” she said.

Sheinbaum’s strategy contrasts with the more confrontational approaches taken by leaders from other countries. She has largely avoided direct criticism of Trump, instead promoting policies that reinforce Mexico’s role within the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement framework.

Pork and pork products followed at $2.58 billion, reflecting a 104 percent growth. Dairy products reached $2.47 billion, while soybean exports amounted to $2.3 billion, a 61 percent increase from the ten-year average.
