White House Announces New Tariffs on Mexican Imports

In a bold move to combat drug trafficking, President Donald Trump has announced a 25% tariff on all Mexican imports. The White House took to social media to explain that this measure is designed to compel Mexico to join forces with the United States in the war against drugs.

Targeting the Drug Cartels

The administration pointed out that Mexican cartels are the primary source of fentanyl, meth, and other dangerous drugs entering the U.S. The White House stated, "These cartels have an alliance with the government of Mexico and endanger the national security and public health of the United States."

A Call for Cooperation

By imposing these tariffs, President Trump aims to pressure Mexico into taking decisive action against the cartels. The White House emphasized that the tariffs will remain in effect until Mexico demonstrates a commitment to cooperating with the U.S. in addressing this critical issue.
