MEXICO AGREES TO SEND WATER NORTH, AVOIDS TARIFFS AFTER TRUMP PRESSURE
Mexico agreed to send more water to the U.S after falling behind on a decades-old deal — and things were getting tense.
Texas farmers were furious, Trump froze water shipments to Tijuana, and Mexico’s president Claudia Sheinbaum had to strike a deal fast to avoid tariffs.
Now the U.S gets its water, Mexico avoids more trade drama, and everyone pretends this 80-year-old deal isn’t one broken pipe away from chaos.
