[Analysis by SMM: Upgraded Tariff Barriers in Mexico Present Resilience and Challenges for China's Aluminum Semis and Products Exports to Mexico] As a key participant in the global aluminum industry chain, China's aluminum semis and products exports to Mexico have shown a complex pattern of "resilience and challenges" coexisting amid recent trade frictions.
