Mexico City: Mexico is projecting confidence that it will fend off a new set of 30% tariffs that President Donald Trump threatened last Saturday to impose next month, with talks already underway to avert the worst.  

After Trump went public with his plan by posting on social media, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum noted in speeches near the northern border that every country has been getting a letter from Trump as he implements global protectionist policies.
