Canada and Mexico have promised to deepen ties and coordinate their approach during a forthcoming review with Washington of the 2020 United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney visited Mexico on Thursday, where he met his counterpart, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, to discuss economic and security ties.

In a joint news conference, the two leaders said they had agreed to expand ties between their countries and were committed to their three-way trade partnership with the US.

Sheinbaum said she was optimistic the two countries would continue to work together with reciprocal “respect”.

“Mexico and Canada will continue walking together, with mutual respect and with a certainty that cooperation is the path to overcome any challenge,” she said.
