MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Protectionist trade measures could hit Mexican economic growth and inflation, Mexico\u2019s central bank governor said in comments published by newspaper Reforma on Monday, in the wake of U.S. import tariffs on Mexico, Canada and the European Union.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mexico now faces new tariffs of 25 percent on steel and 10 percent on aluminum after temporary exemptions expired, prompting Latin America\u2019s second biggest economy to slap tariffs on U.S. products such as pork and cheeses.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an element of risk, the fact that protectionist measures are beginning to spread and that it generates a less favorable environment for international trade,\u201d Mexico Central Bank Governor Alejandro Diaz de Leon said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact of this risk – which is already materializing in some actions against international trade – is an element of worry due to its influence on the side of growth and on the side of inflation,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The flurry of tariff hikes come as talks drag on among Mexico, Canada and the United States to overhaul the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).<\/p>\n
