Mexico pushes for update on trade deal with Europe

Friday, April 13, 2018


Mexican trade negotiators are pushing to finish work on an updated free-trade agreement with the European Union ahead of a trip by President Enrique Pena Nieto to the region later this month.

Mexico started work on updating its pact with the EU in mid-2016 and had aimed to complete a deal by the end of last year.

The goal is now to finish negotiations in time for Pena Nieto to announce the agreement on a trip to Germany during the last week of April.
