Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said she had a “cordial” conversation with Donald Trump on Thursday, discussing trade and security issues ahead of the review of the North American free trade deal.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said she has instructed the foreign ministry to get in touch with the State Department to learn about the extent of the recent executive order imposing tariffs on goods to countries who provide or sell oil to Cuba.

President Claudia Sheinbaum rejected claims that the halting of oil shipments to Cuba was prompted by pressure from Washington, framing the decision as a sovereign policy choice shaped by state oil company Pemex's contractual considerations.
