The termination of what MPI estimates is up to $2.3 billion in yearly U.S. foreign aid earmarked for migration and displacement projects leaves a vast gap that other international donors are unlikely to fill, particularly as European countries are themselves cutting their assistance.

Amid Tariff Threats, Migration Management Is Key to the Evolving Trump-Sheinbaum Relationship

The Trump administration is threatening tariffs on Mexico to achieve migration management aims, as it did in 2019. The landscape is far different in 2025, though. Mexican cooperation is at far higher levels than in 2019 and Mexico is essential to many of the Trump border goals—giving it greater leverage than before. Negotiations that recognize both countries' goals, capacities, and legal frameworks are essential to effective outcomes, this short read argues.

By prioritizing comprehensive and durable support systems now, leaders can lay the groundwork for a future that benefits both those who stay and those who eventually choose to return, as this MPI Europe short read explains.
