According to BlockBeats, on September 16, according to the Financial Times, British Prime Minister Stamer has shelved the idea of ​​"the United States enjoys a certain quota of zero tariffs for the United States", and instead tends to negotiate with Trump to fight for a "permanent" 25% tariff treatment for all UK steel exports. Starmer's allies revealed that if Britain's steel exports can receive a fixed tariff commitment of 25%, it will provide the industry with "certainty" and give it a competitive advantage - because that rate is only half of the 50% tariff paid by other countries. British government officials said that the current 25% preferential tariffs on British steel as "permanent treatment" has not yet formed a "formal agreement" but is expected to be announced during Trump's three-day state visit on Tuesday.
