President Joe Biden has blocked the proposed $15 billion acquisition of U.S. Steel by Japan's Nippon Steel, citing concerns about national security and the impact on American jobs. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), which reviews foreign investments for potential national security risks, had recommended that Biden block the deal. Biden's decision comes after the union representing U.S.
Steel workers, the United Steelworkers, raised concerns about the potential for job losses and the preservation of labor agreements under new ownership. Former President Donald Trump had also pledged to block the deal, citing similar concerns and vowing to use tax incentives and tariffs to support the American steel industry. The decision could potentially strain relations between the U.S. and Japan, a key American ally.
