US Pushes Tariffs Into Mexico Trade Talks The United States expects tariffs to be part of trade negotiations with Mexico this week as Washington prepares for talks tied to the future of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement. U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said President Donald Trump remains concerned about the trade deficit with Mexico and indicated that tariffs are likely to remain a tool in the administration’s broader trade strategy, even with close regional partners. Rules Of Origin Face Fresh Scrutiny Greer said officials are expected to discuss changes to USMCA rules of origin, including requirements that could increase the share of American-made content in goods produced across North America. The issue is especially important for manufacturing and supply chains, as the United States seeks to reduce dependence on Asia and bring more production closer to home. Greer said Mexico has benefited from American efforts to diversify away from China, but Washington wants a more balanced distribution of production. Mexico Talks Seen As Productive The United States views Mexico as a major part of its regional supply chain strategy because it competes with Asian economies for access to the US market. Greer said the administration wants supply chains sourced from the Western Hemisphere wherever possible, pointing to pandemic-era disruptions that limited access to goods from Asia. The goal, he said, is to strengthen North American manufacturing while reducing the deficit with Mexico. Canada Negotiations Look More Difficult Trade talks with Canada appear more complicated. Greer said the United States has significant trade challenges with Canada and noted that Ottawa’s response to tariffs has differed from that of many other partners. Canada has argued that USMCA remains a strong agreement and does not require major renegotiation. The disagreement sets up a difficult review process as Washington seeks tariff-related changes while Canada pushes to preserve the existing framework.
