According to foreign media reports, US President Donald Trump said on the 9th that he will impose a new 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports into the United States, on top of existing metal tariffs.
He will announce new metal tariffs on Thursday.
He also said that massive new reciprocal tariffs would be announced on the 11th or 12th and would take effect almost immediately, applying to all countries and matching the tariff rate imposed by each country.
According to the American Iron and Steel Institute, the largest sources of steel imports to the United States are Canada, Brazil and Mexico, followed by South Korea and Vietnam.
Canada is the largest supplier of primary aluminum to the United States, accounting for 79 percent of total U.S. imports in the first 11 months of 2024.
