U.S. President Donald Trump says he may not renew the USMCA free trade agreement with Canada and Mexico, which replaced NAFTA in his first term. Multiple outlets report Trump told reporters he is “not looking to renew” the pact as a renewal deadline approaches. Coverage cites a July deadline for renewal, with reporting suggesting that if the deadline passes the agreement would continue into a period of ongoing review rather than immediately ending. Bloomberg also reports Trump sends mixed signals: while he indicates a preference that the U.S. not be part of the trilateral agreement, he stops short of explicitly threatening to withdraw. Other reports frame Trump’s comments as connected to concerns about trade deficits with Canada and Mexico, though the outlets differ in how prominently they emphasize that point. Canadian outlet coverage similarly uses the “not looking to renew” formulation for CUSMA. Overall, the statements point to uncertainty around whether the U.S. seeks renewal of the pact, with the agreement’s fate tied to the impending deadline and subsequent review processes.
