Daily Mail: Trump says NO DEAL to Mexico as it offers to send troops to THEIR southern border in bid to avoid tariffs by stopping immigrant caravans
* President's team is negotiating with Mexico's while he's in Europe this week
* VP Mike Pence says there's no deal yet even though Mexico offers to send troops to block migrant caravans from flooding northward toward the U.S.
* Trump threatens 5 per cent tariffs on Mexico's exports to the U.S. if it doesn't help block hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers from entering America
* U.S. wants authority to deport them and make them wait in the first 'safe' country they enter while the U.S. system crawls toward their asylum hearings
* Presently they're held for a short time, given a distant hearing date and released; a majority don't come back and disappear into the interior of the country
Mexico has offered to send up to 6,000 members of its national guard to secure its southern border with Guatemala, telling President Donald Trump's negotiators that it's willing to help contain flows of migrants heading northward to the U.S.
But a deal is still not ready, Vice President Mike Pence said Thursday. Pence led an initial round of negotiations in Washington on Wednesday, saying talks were positive but emphasizing the administration still wants Mexico to commit to working harder to combat illegal immigration.
