Insider: Trump is considering whether to withdraw from the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement.

BlockBeats News, February 11 — Sources familiar with the matter reveal that U.S. President Donald Trump is privately considering whether to withdraw from the USMCA agreement, injecting new uncertainty into the ongoing critical renegotiations among the United States, Canada, and Mexico. These sources say Trump has asked his aides why he shouldn’t withdraw from the agreement he signed during his first term, but he has not yet made a clear decision to take such action. A White House official responded to the discussions by stating that Trump is the ultimate decision-maker and is always seeking more favorable agreements for the American people.

The official added that any discussions about potential actions before the president’s official announcement are baseless speculation. The agreement is scheduled for a mandatory review on July 1, at which point a decision may be made whether to extend the deal. What was once considered a routine process has now evolved into a contentious negotiation. Trump has demanded more trade concessions from Ottawa and Mexico City and has pressured them to address unrelated issues such as immigration, drug trafficking, and national defense. (Jin10)
