Mexico launched a counteroffensive against President Trump's threat to impose tariffs on Mexican imports, highlighting steps taken to curb immigration to the U.S. border. Mexico has offered refugee status and work permits to migrants and increased border control efforts. Talks between the U.S. and Mexico began, with Trump threatening a 5% tariff starting June 10. The tariffs could destabilize the economy and not reduce migration. Trump, in London, left others to handle the potential trade crisis. Mexico rejected a 'safe third country' plan for asylum seekers.
