Mexican President Says Mexico Will Send More Water to US but Not Immediately

Mexico plans phased water deliveries to fulfill treaty obligations amid drought and pipeline limits, while the U.S. demands 200,000 acre-feet by year-end, officials said.

  • Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that Mexico plans to send more water to the United States but not immediately due to various limitations.
  • Sheinbaum explained that the delays in water deliveries are a result of drought and pipeline limitations from the Rio Grande River.
  • Under a 1944 treaty, Mexico is obligated to deliver 1.7 million acre-feet of water to the U.S. every five years, averaging 350,000 acre-feet annually.
  • President Donald Trump claimed on social media that Mexico's water debt is impacting farmers in Texas and emphasized the urgency of the matter.
