Foreign media reported today (August 28): "The Mexican government plans to increase tariffs on China in the 2026 budget proposal to be released next month, to protect domestic businesses from the impact of cheap imports, and to meet the long-standing requirements of U.S. President Trump."
[Witty] Comment: The first is an excuse, the second is a reason. Previously, the United States pressured other G7 members to align with its tariff policies towards China, but it faced a cold reception. However, the United States has more means to manipulate its neighbor Mexico, and it seems that Mexico will have no choice but to comply now, to support Trump's hegemonic actions. The specific tariff rates for China are not yet determined, and they are expected to be announced on September 8. It remains to be seen what rate Mexico will set this time to cooperate with America's unreasonable trade farce.
