According to PANews, U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Monday, February 24, 2025, that the United States will proceed with its plan to impose tariffs on Mexico and Canada. This decision follows the expiration of a one-month delay set to end next week.
During a press briefing at the White House, President Trump was questioned about the potential reinstatement of tariffs on these key trade partners. He confirmed that the tariffs are moving forward "on time and as planned," noting that the process appears to be progressing "very quickly."
President Trump further asserted that the United States has been "taken advantage of" by foreign nations in "almost every aspect" and has faced "very unfair treatment" from many trade partners, not limited to Canada and Mexico.
