Published: 9/17/2025

The UK's hope for a 0% tariff on steel exports to the US has been postponed, with tariffs currently at 25%. Despite reducing tariffs on car and aerospace imports, the US has not agreed to the same for UK steel, disappointing the industry. However, there are ongoing negotiations and hopes for a better deal, with President Trump expressing willingness to refine the trade agreement during his visit.
