USMCA commission to open environmental probe of Mexico train project
Fox News
The trilateral Commission for Environmental Cooperation has recommended opening an investigation into Mexico’s multibillion-dollar tourist train project on the Yucatán peninsula.
The train is currently being rushed to completion. It is the pet project of Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who wants it finished before he leaves office in September 2024.
The trilateral commission was established by the governments of Mexico, the United States and Canada in 1994, and operates under the USMCA free trade agreement.
It has the power to produce fact-finding reports that could be used in trade disputes. It will do so if two of the three countries agree; the U.S. government has always voted to go ahead with such investigations.
