The U.S. has suspended plans to impose tariffs on Mexican goods after the two sides reached an agreement on immigration, President Trump announced on Friday.

The Trump administration has not changed its position in ongoing negotiations with Mexican officials over immigration, planning still to hit all Mexican imports with tariffs by Monday unless the dispute is resolved, the White House said on Thursday as talks continued.

Mexican Foreign Affairs Secretary Marcelo Ebrard on Tuesday said there was a strong chance the U.S. and Mexico could strike an agreement on immigration issues ahead of threatened tariffs on Mexican imports, but President Trump, in London, contended “it’s more likely that the tariffs go on."

The Mexican foreign affairs minister said he would meet with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo: “We will be firm and we will defend the dignity of Mexico.”
