NAFTA

Mexico should make efforts to stop people from illegally entering the US through its territory, President Donald Trump said. He also said the US could place the obligation on Mexico as part of a new NAFTA accord.

US leaving the North American Free Trade Agreement “won’t be the end of the world,” Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray said. He added that his country has to be ready to leave the negotiation table altogether.

Britain could join a trade alliance with the United States, Mexico and Canada if it crashes out of the European Union without a deal, it has emerged.

US President Donald Trump has told the leaders of Canada and Mexico he won’t withdraw from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) “at this time,” but will begin renegotiating it with them.

Expansion of trade ties with both Russia and the European Union is on the agenda for Mexico, according to the country’s Agriculture Ministry.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau arrived in Washington on Monday carrying the hopes of Canadian businesses that he can assure US President Donald Trump the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) is worth salvaging.
