US vows to keep some Canada, Mexico tariffs as trade pact deadline looms

The US plans to maintain tariffs on some Canadian and Mexican imports, complicating efforts to extend the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) past its July 1 deadline. The Trump administration cited unresolved trade disputes with Canada and a large trade deficit, while Mexico reported a record monthly trade surplus. Mexico has surpassed China as the US's largest trading partner.
