Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum denies that Mexico is a gateway for Chinese products, and she assures that she will demonstrate this to Canada and the US.

The President, Claudia Sheinbaum, denied that Mexico is a gateway for Chinese products, after the warning of the Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, about the doubts about the actions that the country had before the T-MEC.

She clarified that the idea that China is using the country to triangulate its products towards North America is correct and reported that her government has a plan to replace Chinese imports with Mexican products since the idea is to reduce them in this six-year term.

“The United States has many imports from China. It was part of an economic project for many years of the US itself, Canada too (…) We have a plan that the Secretary of the Treasury is developing with the Secretary of the Economy to replace those imports that come from China and produce most of them here,” she commented at the morning conference this Friday, November 22nd.

She added: “This idea that Chinese products are entering the country to be taken to the United States is not correct. And I demonstrated this the day that Mexican and American businessmen were here, on October 15, when we had this meeting.”

She exemplified that the automobile industry that is manufactured in the country has 7% of Chinese parts, but in the United States, it is 9%.

President Claudia Sheinbaum highlighted that now in the formal meetings with Canada and the United States “we are going to demonstrate how false this idea is that products are entering through Mexico (…) by all means in commercial terms.”
