The UK is pushing for a revised trade agreement with the US that would lower tariffs on British steel by redefining what qualifies as domestically produced.

This change would benefit companies like Tata Steel UK, which relies on such imports. The negotiations highlight ongoing efforts to resolve trade barriers and strengthen economic ties between the two nations.
