Mexico City: Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum spoke with her US counterpart Donald Trump on Thursday and said the two countries were still seeking an agreement to lift remaining tariffs.

"We continue to talk about trade issues," Sheinbaum told reporters following the telephone call, the latest in a series of conversations between the two leaders.

"We continue negotiating, with good relations and good communication," she added.

Sheinbaum said her Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard would travel to Washington on Friday for more talks.

Trump has announced various import duties targeting Mexico, before scrapping some of them, as part of his global trade war.
