“In the past three decades, Mexico built a strong export platform through NAFTA,” said Mexico’s Secretary of the Economy H.E. @GMarquezColin of @SE_mx. "Over the years, we have developed more capacity, and we increase our exports along with increased complexity." #ACMexico
“The aerospace industry is a regional productive chain, not just two countries producing separately,” said Mexico’s Secretary of the Economy H.E. @GMarquezColin of @SE_mx. "This is not just trade; this is economic integration." #ACMexico
“As a region, we are doing fine in the global competitive index, but there is space for the US, Mexico, and Canada to reach a higher level,” said Mexico’s Secretary of the Economy H.E. @GMarquezColin of @SE_mx. "That is what we must do with #USMCA." #ACMexico
"Almost $1 out of $5 of foreign direct investment is invested in the #USMCA region. The opportunities for diversification in Mexico will be key for the attraction of foreign investors from inside and outside the region." said Economy Secretary @GMarquezColin of @SE_mx. #ACMexico
"Mexico is ready to work with its partners to provide a solid base for the post #COVID19 recovery," said Mexico’s Secretary of the Economy H.E. @GMarquezColin of @SE_mx. #ACMexico
"The message would be that we are here, that we are willing to enhance our trade relationship, and that we are seeking to pursue productive integration of our two economies." -Economy Secretary @GMarquezColin on a recently proposed #AMLO meeting with the White House. #ACMexico
“As this trilateral relationship increases through #USMCA, we will see diversified trade with more production and greater efficiency, which will benefit consumers in all three countries,” said Federico Gobea, President Archer Midland Daniels Mexico. #ACMexico
“The #USMCA allows us to build on the progress we have made over the last three decades,” said @derosenzweig, Mexico’s Former Undersecretary of Foreign Trade, stressing the agreement's capacity to build certainty and consistency within the business environment. #ACMexico
“One of the very positive initiatives launched by @SE_mx has been the guidance provided to private parties on the adjustments they need to make in their production and operation to comply with #USMCA,” said @derosenzweig, Mexico’s Former Undersecretary of Foreign Trade. #ACMexico
"The flow of goods never stopped even though there was a closure along the US-Mexico land border" due to #COVID19, with other avenues remaining open for essential businesses and medical supplies, noted Mexico’s Secretary of the Economy H.E. @GMarquezColin of @SE_mx. #ACMexico
“The #USMCA will allow us and oblige us to bring additional investment to build up local trade and regional supply chains and meet the original value of production from China,” said @derosenzweig, Mexico’s Former Undersecretary of Foreign Trade. #ACMexico

LIVE NOW—Argentina’s debt negotiation: Is a deal within sight? pscp.tv/w/cdyYKTFZTEVK…

In negotiating the debt restructure before establishing a macroeconomic program, the Argentine government "put the cart before the horse," leading to a debt sustainability analysis that shifted due to #COVID19. -@martinredrado, former president of @BancoCentral_AR #ACArgentina
