US President Donald Trump says he will impose additional 25 percent tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports into the United States.
He spoke to reporters aboard Air Force One on Sunday and said he will make the announcement on Monday.
Trump stressed during his presidential campaign that levies introduced during his first term protected the US steel industry.
He has also said cheap steel products from countries including China are harming the sector.

Trump has repeatedly stressed that such levies are necessary to fix unfair trade practices.
