Trump threatens to double tariffs on Mexico

Detailed summary

U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday, Nov. 12, threatened to “immediately” double tariffs on Mexican goods if the country did not stop migrant caravans from reaching the U.S.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum quickly responded, saying no migrant caravans have reached the U.S. border since Trump returned to office in 2025.

CGTN’s Alasdair Baverstock visited a tomato farm in Mexico’s Sinaloa state, where farmers told him how U.S. tariffs have affected them.
