US President Donald Trump has officially issued a blanket 25% tariff on all steel and aluminium imports to the US, Kallanish reports.
The president signed an executive order creating the tariff on Monday night. The move was expected after Trump mentioned it informally on Sunday whilst travelling to the Super Bowl football game.
“It’s a big deal,” Trump said Monday in the Oval Office. “This is the beginning of making America rich again.”
Currently, the US has postponed the 25% tariff it planned to enact against Canada and Mexico.
