Mexico's top officials said Trump’s plan to slap tariffs on Mexican goods will hurt both countries and weaken Mexico’s ability to help stop the flow of Central American immigrants seeking entry into the United States

President Donald Trump’s plan to slap tariffs on Mexican goods will hurt both countries and weaken Mexico’s ability to help stop the flow of Central American immigrants seeking entry into the United States, top Mexican officials said Monday.

Ebard highlighted the actions Mexico is already taking to deal with the stream of migrants crossing into his country from Guatemala. Mexico is “willing to continue to working with the U.S. to address issues of common concern", Ebrard said, speaking through a translator. “We believe our countries can reach a deal on how to face a matter on which our approaches are different.”

Meetings with U.S. officials are expected to continue over the next several days, leading to a summit at the White House on Wednesday with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
