Read the joint US-Mexico statement on immigration enforcement

The United States and Mexico reached an agreement on immigration enforcement Friday and President Donald Trump said tariffs that were scheduled to hit Mexico on Monday had been “indefinitely suspended ” as a result. Under the agreement, Mexico has agreed to deploy its national guard throughout the country with priority given to its southern border to stem migration from Central America. Asylum seekers crossing the U.S. southern border will be sent back to Mexico where they will await the adjudication of their asylum claims, according to the joint declaration.

It will be interesting to see what happens if there is conflict between the national guard and the cartels.

Read the Joint Declaration.
