EU Countries to Vote on Steel Import Restrictions
01/09/2019 - The European Union is to vote next week on whether to make permanent its provisional safeguard measure on steel imports, reports the Reuters news service.
According to Reuters, the measure, if approved, would effectively cap imports for the next three years. The EU imposed a temporary safeguard measure last year in response to the Trump administration’s Section 232 tariffs, fearing that steel that otherwise would have been bound for the U.S. would begin to flood the European markets.
