Mexico will continue to pay a 25% tariff on all goods as punishment for fentanyl crossing its border, a 25% tariff on cars and a 50% rate on aluminum, copper and steel.

The announcement came after his phone call with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, and the two will continue to negotiate over the next 90 days, he wrote on Truth Social.

“The complexities of a Deal with Mexico are somewhat different than other Nations because of both the problems, and assets, of the Border,” Trump wrote.

“Additionally, Mexico has agreed to immediately terminate its Non Tariff Trade Barriers, of which there were many.”

Canada has yet to strike a deal with the US and Trump has indicated the country will likely have to pay the high 35% tariff on all goods crossing the US border starting Friday.
