Trump Says Mexico And Canada Convinced Him To Stay In NAFTA – By Arthur Delaney, Daniel Marans April 27 2017

WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump said Thursday that he was on the verge of withdrawing the United States from the North American Free Trade Agreement until the leaders of Mexico and Canada talked him out of it.

“I was going to terminate NAFTA as of two or three days from now,” Trump said at the White House.

But then, Trump said, he got phone calls from the leaders of Canada and Mexico, two men he likes very much.

“They called me and they said, rather than terminating NAFTA, could you please renegotiate?” Trump said. “I respect their countries very much. The relationship is very special and I said I will hold on the termination, let’s see if we can make it a fair deal.”
