Former President Trump has ramped up pressure on Mexico by threatening to impose an additional 5% tariff on Mexican goods due to alleged violations of a long-standing water treaty. The disputes center around the delivery of water crucial to Texas farmers and the broader implications for U.S.-Mexico relations. Trump claims that Mexico is not fulfilling its obligations under the 1944 Water Treaty, which has resulted in significant implications for American agriculture. The former president has set a deadline for Mexico to release water to the U.S., insisting on compliance to avoid escalating tariffs. This situation marks yet another chapter in the ongoing tensions surrounding water rights along the U.S.-Mexico border.
