US Set to Renegotiate USMCA Deal, Impacting Trade and Economies

The United States intends to renegotiate the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) by 2026 amidst escalating trade tensions between the three nations. This renegotiation could significantly impact $1.8 trillion in annual trade flow, resulting in substantial consequences for North American economies. Key players, including U.S. leadership, Canadian and Mexican government officials, are actively shaping the agreement’s outcome. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick believes that President Trump is committed to renegotiating USMCA to protect American jobs. This effort underscores a strategic shift in U.S. policy and trade relations.
