WASHINGTON — U.S. and Mexican officials met Thursday for a second day of negotiations over President Donald Trump’s threatened tariffs against Mexico, appearing to move closer toward a deal as the president's Monday deadline neared.

The meeting, which is expected to resume later Thursday evening, came a day after officials began talks to prevent the tariffs from taking effect on Monday.

“Position has not changed, and we are still moving forward with tariffs at this time,” White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Thursday.

Vice President Mike Pence sounded a similar note. "There's been some movement on their part that’s been encouraging, but at the end of the day, we'll as those discussions wrap up today, we’ll evaluate those proposals," he told reporters Thursday afternoon, following an event in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. "We’ll present them to the president, but ultimately President Trump will make the decision whether or not the actions Mexico is prepared to take are sufficient for us to consider changing course. But at this point, the tariffs are going to be imposed on Monday."
