The U.S. Department of Transportation on Saturday said the Trump administration planned to take several actions against Mexico over airline competition issues.

"U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy today announced a slate of America First actions to combat Mexico's blatant disregard of the 2015 U.S.-Mexico Air Transport Agreement and its ongoing anti-competitive behavior," a news release from the U.S. Department of Transportation said.

FOX Business reports, the department said Mexico hasn’t been in compliance with the bilateral agreement since 2022, when it rescinded some flight slots for U.S. carriers at Mexico City's international airport and forced U.S. cargo carriers to relocate operations within the city.

While the department said Mexico claimed the slots were taken away to allow for construction at the airport, "that has yet to materialize three years later. By restricting slots and mandating that all-cargo operations move out of [Mexico City International Airport], Mexico has broken its promise, disrupted the market and left American businesses holding the bag for millions in increased costs."
