Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum “categorically rejects” claims her government has close relations with criminal organizations.

She also confirms she will be unveiling her country’s plans to retaliate to US-imposed trade tariffs on Monday morning.

Trump says a tax of 25% on Canadian and Mexican imports as well as an additional 10% tax on Chinese goods would come into force on Tuesday.

Canada and Mexico are set to bring in retaliatory tariffs after the US imposes 25% import taxes on goods from the two countries, as well as a 10% tax on China.

China says it will implement “corresponding countermeasures”, and plans to file a lawsuit with the World Trade Organization.
