Mexico economy minister says doubts U.S. border tax will materialise

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo said on Tuesday he doubted a proposed border tax on Mexican imports to the United States, which the White House has said could be used to finance President Donald Trump's border wall, would ever materialise.

Speaking on the sidelines of an event in Mexico City, Guajardo said he had spoken with several Trump's advisors and had not found any uniformity in their backing of the border tax.
