The U.S. dollar weakened against its major counterparts in the
New York session on Monday, as risk sentiment improved after US
President Donald Trump and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum
agreed to suspend tariffs for one month.
Sheinbaum said Mexico will immediately reinforce its northern
border with 10,000 members of its National Guard to prevent drug
trafficking from Mexico to the United States, particularly
fentanyl.
U.S. stocks rebounded following the news.
Over the weekend, Trump imposed tariffs on imports from Mexico,
Canada and China.
A statement from the White House said Trump is taking "bold
action to hold Mexico, Canada, and China accountable to their
promises of halting illegal immigration and stopping poisonous
fentanyl and other drugs from flowing into our country."
