Sixth Round of NAFTA Ends With Body Blows from Lighthizer
Written by Sandy Williams

“We finally began to discuss the core issues, so this round was a step forward,” Robert Lighthizer said. “But we are progressing very slowly. We owe it to our citizens, who are operating in a state of uncertainty, to move much faster.”
