WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross will hold a news briefing at 9 a.m. (1300 GMT) to announce "Section 232" national security-related tariff modifications, the U.S. Commerce Department said in a statement on Thursday.
The announcement comes after two sources said Washington will announce plans to impose tariffs on EU steel and aluminum imports as early as Thursday. A magazine separately reported that President Donald Trump wanted to push German cars out of the United States.
