Abstract

Since Mexico joined the GATT, the signing of trade agreements has been a cornerstone of its commercial relations, as through them we have been able to gain access to various benefits while also granting them to others. The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), now known as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), has immense potential. However, the words, threats, and actions of the current President of the United States have undermined the efforts made in previous negotiations. It will be the responsibility of the countries involved —Mexico, the United States, and Canada— to seek its continuity.
