The point is, both are AGREEMENTS. Mexican law specifically calls out the difference; it was not an issue with NAFTA but apparently is with USMCA.

I’m not an expert on Mexican law, but it doesn’t matter what they call it. We call it an agreement, because treaties must be ratified by 2/3 of the Senate. They can call it a treaty, agreement, covenant, understanding or whatever Spanish word they want, it doesn’t change it under our law. They called NAFTA a treaty, but that didn’t make it one for us. This is no different.
