How much steel and aluminum do we get from European countries? Close the zero, right?

The EU makes up close to 20% of US steel imports. Most of which originates in Germany.

Look for POTUS Trump to drop the tariffs from countries that produce steel and aluminum directly except China.
China is being punished.
The rest of the world can get rewarded if they are not passing through Chinese steel and aluminum and receive exemptions.
Mexico and Canada who currently have the exemptions will have the tariffs apply if they continue the pass through practice.
