Mexico to host summit for North American leaders

Mexican president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador says he will host a summit in November with President Joe Biden and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Lopez Obrador says the leaders will discuss commercial matters relating to the United States - Mexico - Canada agreement (USMCA).

The USMCA was negotiated by then-President Donald Trump’s administration and replaced the North American free trade agreement (NAFTA) in December 2019.

In a bilateral meeting next week with Biden - Lopez Obrador is expected to discuss matters relating to economic integration between the U.S. and Mexico, immigration among other issues.
