Ebrard noted that despite the cancellation of several key U.S. tariffs, trade with the United States remains essential for Mexico, as a significant portion of the U.S. economy is linked to bilateral commerce between both countries.

The modernized TLCUEM aims to expand access to the European market, particularly for agricultural and fishing products, while also harmonizing investment rules, simplifying trade procedures, and strengthening digital commerce. Under the agreement, Mexican products such as orange juice, tuna, asparagus, and meat will gain improved access to Europe, while Mexico will gradually eliminate tariffs on European goods such as cheese, pork, wine, and chocolate.

The U.S. court ruling ended a central part of the previous administration’s trade strategy based on emergency powers, although U.S. authorities have announced plans to explore new legal mechanisms to impose global tariffs.

In this context, Mexico is reinforcing its strategy of market diversification and productive integration with Europe and North America, seeking greater stability and competitiveness amid ongoing uncertainty in global trade policies.
