Brazilian steelmakers are asking President Jair Bolsonaro to push for a reduction of the US steel and aluminum tariffs.

"Export is the major alternative for the sector. We made a special request to the government to talk to make the US market more flexible," Valor Econômico newspaper quoted steel association (IABr) head Marco Polo de Mello Lopes as saying.

Bolsonaro met with industry representatives on Monday, including Polo de Mello Lopes, and responding to the demand talked about the issue with US President Donald Trump via phone.
