In a move that has drawn widespread criticism, the Trump administration has proposed imposing new tariffs on imports from Mexico. The suggested duties, which range from 5 to 25 percent, would apply to a wide range of products, including cars, fruits, and vegetables. If implemented, the tariffs would represent a significant escalation of the trade war between the United States and Mexico. Experts have warned that the tariffs would damage the economies of both countries and could lead to job losses. The Mexican government has vowed to retaliate if the tariffs are imposed, raising fears of a further deterioration in US-Mexico relations.
