Trump threatens to double tariffs on Mexico if migrant flow is not stopped

The U.S. President threatened to double tariffs on Mexico unless it stops migrants; the Mexican administration denies that any new caravans have arrived.

U.S. President Donald Trump threatened on Thursday to double tariffs on Mexico if the country does not stop more than a thousand migrants who reportedly set out toward the U.S. following the congressional elections. Trump warned that they would not be permitted entry. This was reported by the Jerusalem Post and the Croatian newspaper Jutarnji list.

In response, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum denied the claims, stating that no migrant caravans have arrived at the U.S. border since Trump returned to the White House. Further details have not yet been released.
