Under Biden, should the US form a stronger trading/military alliance with Canada and Mexico?

Sort of a counterbalancing effect against China and Russia's expansionist inclinations in today's world?

Should we include a heavy EU connection as well?

Definitely agreed with the free trade agreement with the North American countries. We could call it the North American Free Trade Agreement. Or maybe call it the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, but it would essentially be the same thing.

Not too sure how much we can work with the Mexican military, but I think we need to form a closer military relationship with our allies to counterbalance China. I actually think it should include all North Atlantic nations and should operate as some type of treaty organization. We could call it the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

I definitely think these ideas have potential.

Job #1 needs to be reestablishing good relationships with our long time allies - whatever that takes.
