The governments of Mexico and Canada have decided to join forces to confront the 25% tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced their commitment to working together to mitigate the impact of these measures on their economies.

"We are committed to working together and protecting the interests of our nations against these unjustified trade measures," Trudeau declared at a press conference on Saturday.

For her part, Sheinbaum reiterated her government's stance against the tariffs, stating that these measures only create economic uncertainty and disrupt supply chains in both countries. The Mexican leader instructed Economy Secretary Marcelo Ebrard to implement "Plan B," which includes tariff measures and other strategies to counter the effects of Trump's trade policy.

"Problems are not solved by imposing tariffs, but through dialogue and mutual respect," Sheinbaum emphasized, recalling recent bilateral cooperation with the U.S. State Department on migration issues.

Canada also announced retaliatory measures, imposing reciprocal tariffs on U.S. products worth $155 billion. Trudeau highlighted that the alliance with Mexico will be crucial in pressuring Washington to reconsider its trade policy.

Both leaders reaffirmed their commitment to free trade and the protection of their national industries. In a joint statement, Mexico and Canada declared that they would continue strengthening their trade relationship and exploring cooperative mechanisms to minimize the impact of U.S. tariffs.
