U.S., Mexico, Canada Sign New Trade Deal

A new North American trade agreement was signed on Friday by leaders of the U.S., Mexico and Canada at the G20 Summit in Buenos Aires. The U.S-Mexico-Canada Agreement, as it will be called by the United States, failed to address the Section 232 tariffs that were at the root of contentious negotiations.

“The USMCA is the largest, most significant, modern and balanced trade agreement in history,” said Trump at the signing ceremony. The agreement will help bring jobs back to the U.S., particularly in the automotive industry, said Trump. “Many many jobs are already planning to come back.”
