NAFTA contributed to globalization by promoting economic integration between the United States, Mexico, and Canada. This led to increased trade and investment among the three countries, as well as the growth of cross-border supply chains and production networks. The agreement helped to lower tariffs and other trade barriers, making it easier for companies to do business across borders and leading to increased trade flows. Additionally, NAFTA sparked a broader debate about trade policy and the benefits and challenges of integrating different economies, highlighting the complexities of globalization and the need for cooperation among countries to address economic issues.
