India–US Trade Tensions Rise Over Steel and Auto Tariffs NMDC Limited reports a 38% drop in Q4 FY24 consolidated net profit RINL to Raise $23 Million Through Land Sales Amid Crisis
Global steel producer ArcelorMittal has urged the European Commission to fast-track implementation of its proposed steel tariff-quota regime, arguing that the new trade tool is vital to protect Europe’s steel industry as imports remain at record levels. In a fresh statement, the company said the measures, announced in October 2025 and due to take effect in June 2026, are essential for safeguarding upstream capacity and the long-term security of Europe’s manufacturing base.
ArcelorMittal stressed that it stands ready to meet European steel demand with EU-produced steel and is preparing to ramp up output across its European facilities once the tariff-quota is in force. The company framed the new regime as a way to stabilise supply chains, protect jobs and underpin future investment in low-carbon steelmaking, particularly as the bloc rolls out its Steel and Metals Action Plan and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
Addressing concerns from some downstream users about potential supply shortages and price volatility, ArcelorMittal Europe CEO Geert Van Poelvoorde said the group can adequately serve European customers from its local footprint. The company maintains that without swift implementation of the tariff-quota to replace current safeguard measures expiring in June 2026, Europe risks further erosion of its industrial base due to surging imports.
