Straining to stave off the threatened tariffs, Mexican and American officials claimed progress in White House talks, but Trump said Thursday that a “lot of progress” must be made to halt the 5% taxes due to go into effect on June 10.


The U.S. imported $346.5 billion worth of goods from Mexico in 2018, according to government data, meaning a 5% tariff will cost more than $17 billion.
