US - TRUMP - ADMINISTRATION - STEEL - TARIFFS - AIMS - TO - PROTECT - AND - AID - U.PORTAGE, IN - MARCH 15: A worker trims a newly-cast steel slab at the NLMK Indiana steel mill on March 15, 2018 in Portage, Indiana. The mill, which is projected to produce up to 1 million tons of steel from recycled scrap in 2018, is considered a "mini mill" by U.S standards. NLMK Indiana is a subsidiary of NLMK, one of Russia's largest steel manufacturers, responsible for nearly a quarter of Russia's steel production and producing nearly a quarter of the worlds slab steel. Steel producers in the U.S. and worldwide are preparing for the impact of the recently-proposed tariffs by the Trump administration of 25 percent on imported steel.
