When asked, President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo denied the possibility of an alliance with Canada in the face of the tariffs imposed by the United States, and emphasized that the three countries “want to maintain” the North American Treaty.

“We obviously want to maintain the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement); fortunately, the working groups related to its revision are already underway. So, the three countries want to maintain the USMCA and strengthen trade with Canada.”
