U.S. President Donald Trump has indicated that the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) might be renegotiated, describing it as a 'transitional step.' Trump expressed uncertainty about the necessity of renegotiation, stating, 'Don't know if necessary to renegotiate USMCA anymore.' He also mentioned the possibility of 'subtle changes' to the agreement.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has also commented on the USMCA, noting that 'some things about USMCA will have to change.' This comes amid tensions over tariffs and trade relations between the three countries. Trump's comments were made during a meeting with Carney, where he also mentioned seeking friendship with Canada and described the USMCA as an improvement over the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which he has criticized as 'the worst trade deal in the history of our country.'

Trump suggested that the renegotiation could lead to adjustments or the termination of the USMCA. He also humorously remarked on the idea of Canada becoming the 51st state, saying it 'takes two to tango.'
