Mexican Leaders Cheer Apollo’s Rowan for Pushing US-Mexico Deal
- On Wednesday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum emphasized Mexico's commitment to upholding the USMCA trade pact involving the United States and Canada.
- Sheinbaum emphasized the USMCA’s importance in enabling competition with Asian countries, especially China, amid concerns about potential shifts in US trade policy under President Trump.

- Sheinbaum affirmed Mexico's commitment to preserving the USMCA, emphasizing its benefits for all three member countries, and highlighted that despite his broader trade conflicts and tariffs on certain Mexican exports, President Trump has expressed favorable views of the agreement.
- Mexico will continue to fight to preserve the USMCA, which is due for review by July next year, reflecting its strategic role in North American trade stability.
