President Claudia Sheinbaum assured President-elect Donald Trump that caravans are no longer reaching the U.S.-Mexican border.

Trump had threatened to impose a 25 percent tariff on imports from Mexico if it could not halt irregular migrants and fentanyl from crossing the border.

Mexico ’s aggressive push to detain migrants this year has helped drive down the number of apprehensions at the border by 75 percent since December .
