WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Leaders of the United States, Canada and Mexico will meet for the first time in five years on Thursday to promote economic integration, but tensions over the auto industry, 'Buy American' policies and a Mexican energy bill could weigh on talks.

President Joe Biden has revived the so-called Three Amigos summit - to be held at the White House on Thursday afternoon for the first time since 2016, after it was ditched by former President Donald Trump. Bilateral meetings will be held earlier in the day.
