U.S. reaches trade deal with Mexico

The United States and Mexico have reached a trade deal, but no details have been released.

United States President Donald Trump said now attention will turn to negotiations with Canada.

The Mexican president said he hopes Canada can be incorporated into a joint deal, but Trump said the North American Free Trade deal is dead and the new one is the U.S.- Mexico trade deal.

He also twice said he will impose tariffs on cars as one of his negotiating chips, and repeated complaints about Canadian dairy-product tariffs.

He said negotiations with Canada will begin “almost immediatly.”
