With no deal made, U.S.-Mexico tariff talks to continue Thursday

President Trump tweeted on Wednesday evening that talks with Mexican representatives ended for the day without officials reaching any agreements on immigration or tariffs.

"Progress is being made, but not nearly enough!" he said. Trump announced via Twitter last week that he will impose a 5 percent tariff on Mexican goods beginning June 10 "until such a time as illegal migrants coming through Mexico, and into our Country, STOP." The tariff will increase by 5 percent every month until October. The plan is unpopular with both Democratic and Republican lawmakers.

With Trump out of the country, Vice President Mike Pence led the talks, and he tweeted that Mexico "must do more to address the urgent crisis at our Southern Border." Discussions will resume on Thursday, Trump said, "with the understanding that, if no agreement is reached, Tariffs at the 5% level will begin Monday, with monthly increases as per schedule. The higher the Tariffs go, the higher the number of companies that will move back to the USA!"
