US is looking to address EU concerns on metal "derivative" products, says EU trade chief

BRUSSELS, Feb 24 (Reuters) - The United States is looking to address EU concerns about 50% tariffs it placed on the metal content of "derivatives" such as wind turbines and motorcycles, European Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic said on Tuesday.

"I got reassurances from our U.S. colleagues that they know that this is a big problem for us and that they're looking into this matter, and hopefully we will be having better news in that regard rather soon," Sefcovic told a hearing at the European Parliament.
