Germany writes to US to criticise plans to act against steel imports

German Economy Minister Brigitte Zypries has written a letter to US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross in which she criticised Washington's plans to take action against steel imports, a German newspaper reported. An investigation by US President Donald Trump's administration into whether foreign-made steel imports pose a risk to US national security is nearly done, a senior US official said on Friday. The probe's findings are expected to be released later this week.
