President Donald Trump signed an order Monday imposing global tariffs of 25% on all steel and aluminum imports in a move that will likely please domestic steelmakers but hurt allies like Canada and Mexico.

Mexico, Canada and the European Union on Tuesday condemned U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to impose tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports next month, a move that has fanned fears of a trade war as business and political leaders braced for yet more trade duty announcements from the new administration.

The 25 percent tariffs on imported steel and aluminum are the latest salvo in his ongoing effort to overhaul the U.S. trading relationship with the rest of the world.
