President Donald Trump will announce Monday new 25 percent tariffs on all steel and aluminum entering the United States, including from Canada and Mexico.
Canada and Mexico are two of the U.S.’s biggest steel trading partners, and Canada is the biggest supplier of aluminum metal into the country.
UPI reports Trump told reporters Sunday aboard Air Force One of his plan by declaring, “Any steel coming into the United States is going to have a 25 percent tariff. Aluminum, too.”
Trump also reaffirmed he would announce “reciprocal tariffs” — “probably Tuesday or Wednesday” — meaning that the U.S. would impose import duties on products in cases where another country has levied duties on U.S. goods.
