So, Eder, I also want to get the response that you are hearing from Mexico to this latest move from the Trump administration, the 25 percent tariff on steel and aluminum.

Is that the strategy as well then that Mexico took when President Trump announced the broad sweeping tariffs that were going to go in place on Mexican goods on February 1st? Remember, that was similar to what happened in Canada. He announced these big tariffs. There were some talks and then he pulled back. But was Mexico's reaction similar at that time?

So then, Sue, just like I asked you about the dynamic with Canada, how does this end with Mexico? Is there an off-ramp?
