PRESIDENT Donald Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on steel and aluminium imports into the United States will have a wider impact than just the industry he is protecting, and comes after the January decision to impose tariffs on solar panels and washing machines. The tariff will take effect 15 days after March 8 when the order was signed.
