Mexico's president assured reporters Wednesday that her deal with Donald Trump to pause U.S. tariffs on Mexico won't end after a month.

It took Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum a single phone call to get Donald Trump to back off — at least temporarily — from his threat of tariffs.Canada’s Justin Trudeau needed two.It’s a testament to Sheinbaum’s ability to read the US president even though she’s been her country’s leader for much less time than Prime Minister Trudeau.

The 25% tariffs, which Trump first threatened in November to demand Mexico and Canada stem the flow of fentanyl and illegal immigrants into the U.S., were among the first foreign policy obstacles for Sheinbaum, who took office in October as Mexico's first woman president and promised to keep a "cool head" during tariff talks.
