 RSF Rebels to Be Eliminated Completely, No Talks to Be Held: Sudan's Commander-in-Chief The country will not hold negotiations with the rebels or those who support or cooperate with them, Abdel Fattah al-Burhan said at a ceremony honoring the former chief of staff and members of the General Staff. The Sudanese Armed Forces maintain their ongoing campaign to decisively defeat the terrorists and rid the country of the scourge of rebellion, he noted, Sputnik reported. For his part, Chief of Staff Yasser Abdelrahman Al-Atta pledged to fulfill his duty to the Sudanese people, stressing that the military will continue its march toward victory until full sovereignty is restored across Sudan's national territory.

 Mexico president vows to retaliate with own tariffs against Trump’s tax threat


Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, has rebuked Donald Trump’s threat to impose steep tariffs on Mexico, arguing the plan would do nothing to halt the flow of migrants or drugs bound for the US border, and vowing that Mexico would hit back with tariffs of its own.

“One tariff would be followed by another in response, and so on until we put at risk common businesses,” Sheinbaum said, warning that tariffs would cause inflation and job losses in both countries. “What sense is there?”


Sheinbaum’s comments came after Trump said on Monday that, as one of his first actions as president, he would impose a 25% tax on all imports from Mexico and Canada in an effort to stop the flow of migrants and narcotics into the United States.


“This Tariff will remain in effect until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country!” Trump wrote on his Truth Social page.

It is unclear if the president-elect’s proposal would even be legal or possible, given that the three countries share a free trade agreement known as the USMCA that was negotiated during his previous term in the White House.

But as analysts pointed out, Trump has never been one to abide by the rules.

“Did we really think that Trump was going to become more institutional or more formal?” said Valeria Moy, a Mexican economist and director general of IMCO, a public policy analysis firm. “The Trump that the United States and the world will have, at least in the signs he’s given, is a Trump that will be more dictatorial, tougher, more emboldened.”


Even if they are legally questionable, the tariffs could provide Trump with a quick win upon taking office in January, said Viri Ríos, a Mexican public policy expert.

“I don’t rule out that he would implement them temporarily to give a result to his electoral base, which would be happy to see that Donald Trump is being consistent with his campaign promises,” she said. “But from that to this being a long term strategy, it seems to me that it would not be good for the United States itself.”
