The EU subsequently retaliated by placing tariffs on US products such as bourbon whiskey and Harley-Davidson Inc. motorbikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trade tensions have also had an impact on the secondary commodities market. For example, in the case of aluminium, China imposed a 25% tariff on US aluminium scrap exports in retaliation. This, coupled with China&#8217;s aim to protect the environment and encourage domestic recycling, has significantly reduced its consumption of foreign scrap in recent years, forcing many Western distributors to seek new markets in emerging countries in Asia and Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new agreement announced on Saturday allows a limited volume of steel and aluminium from the European Union to enter the United States without tariffs. The volume has not yet been specified, although there is speculation that the limit will be 3.3 million tonnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond lifting tariffs, the US and the EU also plan to address the threat posed by climate change and production overcapacity in the steel industry, one of the world&#8217;s largest emitters of CO2. It is also stipulated that steel and aluminium must be produced entirely within the EU in order to prevent non-EU metals from being processed in Europe and exported to the US, especially those from China, which has recently sold its steel cheaply on international markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The global agreement will be worked out over the next two years to promote &#8220;green&#8221; steel and aluminium production and will be open to all countries that want to join, including China.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n    \n\n    <div class=\"c-container c-post--related\" style=\"background-color: #F7F5F2; --xsPadding: 40px 25px 40px 25px; --smPadding: 40px 25px 40px 25px; --mdPadding: 40px 25px 40px 25px; --lgPadding: 72px 100px 72px 100px; --xlPadding: 72px 100px 72px 100px; --xxlPadding: 72px 100px 72px 100px;\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n            <h3 class=\"c-article__side__heading\">Other posts that may interest you\u2026<\/h3>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"scrapad-blocks-related glide\" data-autoplay=\"4000\" data-views-desktop=\"3\" data-views-tablet=\"2\" data-views-mobile=\"1\" data-mode=\"slider\">  \n            <div class=\"container glide__track\" data-glide-el=\"track\">\n                <div class=\"row slider-mobile glide__slides\">\n                                                                         \n                            <div class=\"col-12 col-lg-6 glide__slide\">\n                                    <div class=\"c-blog__item\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/scrapad.com\/en\/blog\/rising-shipping-costs-will-impact-on-business-and-consumers\/\" class=\"c-blog__item--inner\">\n            <div class=\"c-blog__item__header\">\n                <div\n                    class=\"c-blog__item__image\"\n                    style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/scrapad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/encarecimiento-transporte-maritimo-scaled.jpg;\"\n                ><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"c-blog__item_body\">\n                    <h4 class=\"c-blog__item__title\">Rising shipping costs will impact on business and consumers<\/h4>\n                    <div class=\"c-blog__item__meta\">\n                        <span class=\"c-blog__item__date\">07\/07\/2021<\/span>\n                    <\/div>\n                <div class=\"c-blog__item__desc\">\n                    <p>Global trade, both import and export, is being threatened\u00a0by\u00a0rising shipping prices.
