As Mexican Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo is meeting Canadian and US counterparts to continue NAFTA renegotiation, he emphasized that a deal “depends on the commitment and flexibilities around the table”. And he expressed firmly that “Mexico has been very clear: we will not accept any type of restrictions in aluminum or steel”.
Earlier today, Moises Kalach expressed his optimism that “in the coming 10 days we can really have a new agreement in principle.” Kalach is head of the international negotiating arm of the CCE business lobby, which represents the Mexican private sector at the NAFTA talks.
