UK trade minister says negotiating with the US to eliminate additional tariffs
- It's disappointing that US has imposed global tariffs on steel and aluminum
- Negotiating a wider economic agreement to eliminate additional tariffs
- Focused on a more pragmatic approach and rapidly negotiating on the matter
- Will keep all options on the table and won't hesitate to respond in the national interest
