Overview
- Greer’s Mexico City visit, which runs Sunday night to Tuesday morning, features all‑day technical sessions Monday and a meeting with President Claudia Sheinbaum.
- Mexico will push to scrap U.S. steel and aluminum duties under Section 232 and to speed nearshoring that shifts sourcing from Asia into North America.
- The United States plans to stress rules of origin, which set how much North American content a product needs to qualify for trade perks, and to protect farm access after 41 senators urged Greer to enforce the pact.
- Talks will drill into steel, aluminum, autos, and agriculture, with industry representatives joining technical sessions and USTR presenting its formal stance directly to Sheinbaum.
- Canada is expected to join the formal review in May, and officials say discussions may run past the July 1 six‑year review date, the checkpoint that can extend the pact’s 16‑year term.
