Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Eases Tariffs on Canada and Mexico Amid Rising Tensions

Caption: Trump Eases Tariffs on Canada and Mexico Amid Rising Tensions. US President Donald Trump has scaled back tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports for the second time in two days, easing uncertainty for businesses and financial markets. He announced a temporary exemption for car manufacturers from the 25% import levy, just a day after it took effect. Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum welcomed the decision while Canada agreed to hold off on its planned retaliatory tariffs. However, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described his phone call with Trump as “colorful,” with reports saying the US president used strong language multiple times. Despite some relief, Trudeau warns that a trade war remains likely. Meanwhile, the US and Mexico have pledged to work together to tackle fentanyl trafficking and illegal gun smuggling.
