SINGAPORE/LONDON, Feb 25 (Reuters) - The dollar steadied on Tuesday, having fallen to its lowest in more than two months against a basket of major currencies a day earlier, buoyed by safe-haven flows after U.S. President Donald Trump said tariffs on Mexico and Canada would proceed as planned.

Trump on Monday said that tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports were "on time and on schedule" despite efforts by the countries to beef up border security and halt the flow of fentanyl into the U.S. ahead of a March 4 deadline.

Stocks closed mostly lower Monday with the Dow eking out a slight gain, the S&P 500 dropping half of one percent, and the Nasdaq ending the session down 1.2%00:01
