Mexico Prepares for Trump’s Economic Policies: “Sangre Fría” Strategy in Place

Mexico City, Mexico – As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office, Mexico’s Secretary of Economy, Marcelo Ebrard Casaubón, assures the nation is ready to respond to any economic actions he may take.

“We are ready; we have been working on this for months,” Ebrard stated emphatically during a recent visit to Guadalajara.”We certainly know what to do in each of the possible scenarios, so there will be no surprises. All preparations have been made to react intelligently and on time.”

Ebrard highlighted the success of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), a trade deal negotiated during Trump’s first term. “It is the most triumphant trade agreement there has been,” he said, noting that it led to over a 37% increase in trade between Mexico and the United States.”We have enough elements to defend it,” Ebrard added.

He emphasized Mexico’s position as the United States’ top trading partner, surpassing even China and Canada. Citing data from the U.S. government, Ebrard pointed out that Mexico exported $466 billion to the U.S. and imported $323 billion as of November 2020.

“For every dollar we export to them, we import 65 cents. Vietnam doesn’t import even 10 cents, and China is around 20 cents. We are the best possible partner for the United States,” he asserted.

Ebrard cited the presence of global companies like nvidia, a world leader in technology, establishing operations in Jalisco as evidence of Mexico’s attractiveness to foreign investment.

“It’s due to the infrastructure we have and the future that is seen in the relationship between the two countries,” he explained. “Mexico has access to the North American market and production capacity.”

Addressing Trump’s controversial statements about Mexico being controlled by drug cartels and his proposal to rename the Gulf of Mexico, Ebrard stated that Mexico would not engage in tit-for-tat responses.

“Mexico cannot respond to every statement made by the president-elect of the United States,” he said.”Our strategy will be ‘sangre fría,’ intelligence, and Mexican wisdom.”

Ebrard emphasized the importance of focusing on collaboration rather than getting caught up in rhetoric. “It’s like saying, ‘Oh, then Pennsylvania is run by drug cartels.’ Obviously, that doesn’t lead us anywhere,” he said.”Let’s see how we can work together to make things better.Do you want to help Mexico? Don’t send weapons…”

Looking ahead,Ebrard expressed confidence that the Gulf of Mexico will retain its name.”If we look 30 years from now, the Gulf of Mexico will still be called the Gulf of Mexico,” he said. “We won’t get bogged down in that debate. What we will do is protect the relationship we have with the United States.”
