“Sheinbaum has managed to play his cards well: cold head is what is needed to deal with Trump”

Víctor Espinoza, president of the Northern Border College, highlights the differences in the treatment that Donald Trump gives to Mexico and Canada, noting that the Mexican president, Claudia Sheinbaum, has prudently managed the relationship with Trump, managing to postpone tariffs on several occasions. In contrast, the relationship with Canada has been more conflictive, especially for steel and aluminum tariffs. Espinoza also emphasizes that the uncertainty generated by tariffs has affected the Mexican economy, although the parity of the peso against the dollar has improved. Despite tensions, he hopes that Mexico will avoid harmful tariffs.
