Trump Threatens to Double Tariffs on Mexico Over Migrant Caravans
US President Donald Trump threatened to immediately double tariffs on Mexico if it does not stop migrant caravans heading toward the US border. He linked the warning to a renewed influx of migrants following Republican losses in the midterm elections. Trump urged Mexico to act swiftly, emphasizing that the migrants would not be allowed entry. The caravan, estimated at about 1,500 people mostly from Central America, began moving north from Tapachula near the Guatemalan border. Mexican authorities had not responded to the threat at the time of reporting.
