United States declines to renew USMCA trade agreement, triggering annual review process.
The Trump administration refused to renew the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) for a 16-year term during the mandatory six-year review on July 1, 2026. The trade pact remains in force but now enters a period of annual reviews, with a 10-year countdown to its expiration in 2036 if no extension is reached. U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer cited trade deficits and the agreement's shortcomings as reasons for the decision.
