The move, which many domestic steel and aluminum makers <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/10\/business\/economy\/trump-tariff-supporters.html\" title=\"\">support<\/a>, is expected to raise costs for American manufacturers of cars, tin cans, solar panels and other products, potentially slowing the wider U.S. economy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The action on metals was just the latest attempt by Mr. Trump to leverage the power of tariffs and the American market against foreign governments. Last week, he <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/04\/business\/economy\/trump-tariffs-canada-mexico-china.html\" title=\"\">issued steep tariffs<\/a> on imports from Canada, Mexico and China, blaming those countries for the entry of drugs and migrants into the United States, before quickly <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/06\/us\/politics\/trump-mexico-tariffs-suspended.html\" title=\"\">paring some of them back<\/a>. The president is threatening to impose a raft of other tariffs, including on foreign cars and against countries <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/13\/us\/politics\/trump-tariffs.html\" title=\"\">that he says discriminate<\/a> against the United States.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">His approach has been met with a <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/live\/2025\/03\/10\/us\/president-trump-news\" title=\"\">market slump<\/a> and has sent many U.S. allies into a defensive mode as they try to decipher what the president actually wants. On Tuesday, Mr. Trump <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/11\/us\/politics\/trump-canada-tariffs-metal.html\" title=\"\">threatened to double<\/a> the tariffs on Canadian metal after Ontario had responded to Mr. Trump\u2019s previous tariffs by putting a surcharge on electricity exported to the United States. Within hours, Ontario had suspended its surcharge, and Mr. Trump walked back his threats.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The metal tariffs, and other levies to come, are likely to again worsen trade disputes. Foreign governments, including in Canada and Europe, have vowed to retaliate by issuing levies that will most likely hurt U.S. exporters. The metal tariffs mainly affect U.S. allies: Canada is by far the largest supplier of both steel and aluminum to the United States. Brazil, Mexico, South Korea and Vietnam are also top suppliers of steel, while the United Arab Emirates, Russia and China are top suppliers of American aluminum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The tariffs restore and expand similar measures that Mr. Trump put in place in 2018, which ushered in several long-running trade wars. Mr. Trump argued that the tariffs were needed to protect national security and provide a reliable source of metal for the military in wartime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the intervening years, both Mr. Trump and former President Joseph R. Biden Jr. made deals with foreign countries, including Brazil, Mexico, Canada and nations in Europe, that whittled away at the tariffs. The U.S. metals industry has complained that the measures were no longer strong enough to keep steel mills and aluminum smelters afloat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Kevin Dempsey, the president of the American Iron and Steel Institute, an industry group, said that the tariffs had been \u201cvery effective\u201d compared with previous one-off trade actions that had only targeted specific countries or specific products.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThings would be, without those tariffs, much worse for the industry,\u201d Mr. Dempsey said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But because steel and aluminum are used to make so many other products, raising the price of the metal will have ripple effects throughout the U.S. economy. By increasing costs of basic inputs for many companies, the tariffs could harm manufacturers who ultimately employ far more Americans than steel mills and aluminum smelters do, potentially causing Mr. Trump\u2019s plans to bolster U.S. manufacturing to backfire.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\"><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.usitc.gov\/publications\/332\/pub5405.pdf\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">An economic analysis<\/a> published by the U.S. International Trade Commission, an independent, bipartisan agency, suggested that the costs to the U.S. economy from Mr. Trump\u2019s first tranche of metal tariffs outweighed the gains.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The study found that the metal tariffs levied in 2018 encouraged buyers of steel and aluminum to purchase more from U.S. sources, led to higher domestic prices for metals and expanded U.S. steel production by about 2 percent between 2018 and 2021, the years the report studied.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But the analysis also found that the tariffs raised production costs for firms making automobiles, tools and industrial machinery, shrinking production in those and other downstream industries by about $3.48 billion in 2021 as a result. The steel and aluminum industries produced only $2.25 billion more in metals that year because of the levies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In an effort to mitigate those harmful consequences, the Trump administration has expanded its steel and aluminum tariffs this time to include various downstream goods, or \u201cderivative products,\u201d made with steel and aluminum, such as <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/markets\/commodities\/trumps-expanded-metals-tariffs-hit-goods-horseshoes-bulldozer-blades-2025-03-11\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">tractor parts, metal furniture and hinges<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Chad Bown, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, a research organization, said that move was an \u201cimplicit acknowledgment\u201d that some industries were suffering because of Mr. Trump\u2019s previous tariffs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">He said that the tariffs created a \u201ccycle of cascading protectionism\u201d in which more industries would ask for government safeguards, and that it \u201cmay be difficult to stop\u201d once it gets going.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWhere does it end?\u201d Mr. Bown asked.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The prospect of higher costs has also encouraged other U.S. industries, like automakers, to lobby for tariffs on their foreign competitors to protect their businesses. Mr. Trump has said he plans to levy a tariff on foreign cars on April 2.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">For automakers, the metal tariffs threaten to raise costs when prices of new cars and trucks are already near record highs. The average price of a new vehicle in January was more than $48,000, according to Edmunds, a market research group.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cAffordability is already a major concern for American car shoppers amid elevated prices and interest rates,\u201d said Jessica Caldwell, head of insights at Edmunds. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Robert Budway, the president of the Can Manufacturers Institute, a trade group that represents companies making steel and aluminum cans for food, soda, beer and paint, said that tariffs would result in higher packing costs, which would ultimately be passed to American consumers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Food packagers were relying more on imported metals, and simply paying more for them, Mr. Budway said. According to figures from the institute, the cost of a steel can had increased 53 percent from 2019 to 2024, after Mr. Trump first imposed his tariffs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt just makes the price higher,\u201d Mr. Budway said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The measures also seem likely to invite retaliation from foreign countries, rebounding on U.S. exporters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Canadian officials have said they plan to retaliate, adding on to the 25 percent tariff their government put on $30 billion of American goods this month in response to Mr. Trump\u2019s levies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe government of Canada has been clear on this issue since the beginning,\u201d said Gabriel Brunet, a spokesman for the finance minister, Dominic LeBlanc, who is leading Canada\u2019s trade response. \u201cShould the United States move forward\u201d with tariffs on metals or other fees, he said on Tuesday, \u201cwe will be ready to respond firmly and proportionately.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-7\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The European Union has been preparing to hit back against the tariffs, which they have called \u201c<a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/commission\/presscorner\/detail\/en\/statement_25_456\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">economically counterproductive<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Maros Sefcovic, the trade commissioner for the European Union, said during a news briefing Monday that he had traveled to the United States last month \u201cseeking constructive dialogue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIn the end, as it is said, one hand cannot clap,\u201d he said. \u201cThe U.S. administration does not seem to be engaging to make a deal.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-8\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The E.U. already has a raft of tariffs \u2014 including <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/14\/business\/economy\/whiskey-tariffs.html\" title=\"\">25 percent levies<\/a> on products like American whiskey \u2014 set to kick in at the end of March. A trade-focused group within the E.U. system <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/07\/world\/europe\/eu-tariffs-trump.html\" title=\"\">spent much of last year<\/a> preparing for different situations, though it has kept any updates to its tariff lists secret, according to three diplomats who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a matter that is not yet public.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But it has been hard for Europeans to decide how to respond to the threat of tariffs, and European officials have also struggled to get their American counterparts on the phone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, has not spoken individually with Mr. Trump since his inauguration. Asked when she might do so during a news conference on Sunday, she said that \u201cwe will have a personal meeting when the time is right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-798hid etfikam0\">Neal E.
