Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to Meet with President Trump at G7 Summit

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has announced her plans to attend the upcoming G7 summit in Alberta, where she hopes to have a pull-aside conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump. The two North American leaders will be discussing ongoing tariffs and economic threats that have strained the Canada-Mexico relationship.

While Mexico is not a member of the G7, Sheinbaum has been invited to participate in discussions around the global leaders’ summit. She initially hesitated to confirm her attendance but has now announced that she will be present at the summit.

“I have decided that I will attend the G7,” Sheinbaum stated. “The foreign affairs minister is working on setting up bilateral meetings, and it is likely that we will have one with Trump.”

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s office has indicated that he is aiming to reach a deal on tariffs and trade during the G7 meetings. Carney also expressed a desire to make progress on bilateral issues with the U.S. before addressing the trilateral Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA).

Although the official review of the CUSMA is scheduled for 2026, Mexican officials anticipate that a review may commence earlier than planned.

As tensions around trade and tariffs continue to escalate, Sheinbaum’s meeting with Trump at the G7 summit could pave the way for improved relations between Mexico and the United States. Stay tuned for updates on the outcomes of their discussions at the summit.
