Mexico’s Sheinbaum to attend World Cup final at Trump’s invitation

# Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum said she would attend the World Cup final later today, at the ‌invitation of US President Donald Trump along with Canadian prime minister Mark Carney. She says it is important that the host countries are involved, as a sign of the strong coordination and collaboration they have. Sheinbaum previously said she would not attend any game in a show of solidarity with regular Mexicans who could not afford tickets. The presence of Sheinbaum and Carney comes as Mexico and Canada seek to convince Trump to extend the trilateral North American trade agreement.
