A lot of the English reporting I'm reading said "reinforce" which implies addition. I don't speak spanish but the tweet from Sheinbaum also translates to "reinforce" if translation valid:

>1. Mexico will immediately reinforce the northern border with 10,000 members of the National Guard to prevent drug trafficking from Mexico to the United States, particularly fentanyl.

Agree it implies addition, but if you promise to send 10k, then make another promise to send 10k, then send 10k you kept both promises to send 10k.

An article saying home many troops are going to be on the border ie 10k vs 20k. Or clarity on if 10k had already been sent to the border before the pledge to Trump for 10k reinforcements. Or something that goes in to detail about the timing and number of troop deployments would clear up the issue.
