Mexico aims to pivot economy away from U.S.

Mexican leaders are very worried about all of President Trump’s threats, including a potential 20 percent tax on Mexican imports, a wall on the border, and renegotiating a trade deal.

Mexican officials kick off talks with their counterparts in the European Union on Monday to update their own free trade agreement initially signed in 2000.

Both sides had expressed a desire for a new agreement for years, but only announced “accelerated” trade talks shortly after Trump took office.
