President Trump has postponed 25 percent tariffs on most goods from Mexico for a month.

The announcement comes after Howard Lutnick, his Commerce Secretary, said tariffs on both Mexico and Canada would likely be delayed, according to AP News. It also marks the second one-month postponement the President has announced since early February when it unveiled the import taxes.

Lutnik stated that the reciprocal tariffs will still be implemented on April 2nd.
