Mexico Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard met U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick during a G-20 meeting in North Carolina to discuss the USMCA trade agreement and the impact of U.S. tariffs on cars, steel, and aluminum. Ebrard expressed concern over the tariffs, arguing they are unjustified and contradict the spirit of North America’s integrated manufacturing supply chains.
The meeting also touched on artificial intelligence and innovation policies, with U.S. representatives opposing technology-specific AI regulations found in the EU’s AI Act, favoring the "Carolina Principles" that encourage regulations not singling out specific technologies.
