Mexico, US Extend Trade Deadline
The leaders of Mexico and the United States, Claudia Sheinbaum and Donald Trump, spoke.
They decided to give themselves more time to work out trade issues.
Back in July, the U.S. agreed to pause raising taxes on some Mexican products for three months.
Now, they've agreed to push back the deadline for a little while longer to keep talking.
This is related to the USMCA trade agreement, which is up for review next year.
Sheinbaum is optimistic about reaching a favorable trade agreement with the U.S.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump.
The leaders agreed to extend the trade deadline.
The extension is for "a few more weeks".
In July, the U.S. agreed to pause a 30% tariff increase on some Mexican goods.
The pause was set to end this week.
