Mexico signs a new trade agreement with the EU

Mexico and the European Union had not gathered for a summit since Barack Obama was still president in the US — an era when the idea of the White House walking away from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) would have seemed silly.

A decade later, NAFTA is gone — being replaced by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), which comes up for a formal review later this year, that could upend commerce across the Rio Grande.
