President Trump intends to delay signing a revised version of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) until after the fall midterm elections, a move aimed at reaching a better deal with Canada and Mexico, reports PBS.
Trump said in an interview that he could quickly sign an agreement with the United States’ neighbors, “but I’m not happy with it. I want to make it more fair.” Asked about the timing of an agreement, Trump said: “I want to wait until after the election.”
