Why Biden wants to raise tariffs on Chinese steel
Quick Glance: Joe Biden Calls for Significant Increase in Tariffs on Chinese Steel
  • US President Joe Biden is pushing for an increase in tariffs on Chinese steel and aluminium to strengthen union support in the swing state of Pennsylvania.

  • During a meeting with United Steelworkers union members in Pittsburgh, Biden calls on trade representative Katherine Tai to raise the tariffs from the current average of 7.5 percent.

  • The main focus of the measures is to combat China's new export surge and the ongoing price pressure that makes it difficult for American steel companies to compete.

  • The Biden administration's decision to increase tariffs is expected to impact recent efforts by Washington and Beijing to stabilize relations.
