BlockBeats News, February 11th - Sources revealed that President Trump of the United States is privately considering whether to withdraw from the USMCA, injecting new uncertainty into the crucial renegotiation involving the three countries of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. These sources said Trump had asked aides why he shouldn't exit the agreement he signed during his first term, but he has not clearly indicated he will take such action. A White House official, in response to the discussion, stated that Trump is the ultimate decision-maker and is always seeking a more favorable deal for the American people.
The official stated that discussions about potential actions are unfounded speculation until the President formally announces. The agreement is set for a mandatory review on July 1st, when a decision may be made on whether to extend the agreement. What was once expected to be a routine process has now evolved into a controversial negotiation. Trump has demanded more trade concessions from Ottawa and Mexico City and pressured them to address unrelated issues such as immigration, drug trafficking, and national defense. (FX Street)
