UK introduces steel industry plan to counter US tariff threat

According to Reuters, as the U.S. imposes tariffs on steel imported into the U.S., the U.K. Department of Business and Trade released a development plan for the steel industry on Feb. 16 that will investigate issues facing the U.K. industry, such as unfair trade practices from other countries, and look at ways to attract and retain talent in the industry in Britain. Britain's business secretary has also said that he will try to persuade the U.S. government to lift tariffs on British steel and aluminum products.
