(MENAFN) The American-Hellenic Chamber of Commerce has expressed on Friday objection to the recent US government's decision to impose tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from the European Union.
The chamber said that it supports and joins other American-European chambers which oppose the US government's decision, and demanded the US government to re-examine the issue.
"The EU in no way constitutes a threat to the economy and security of the U.S., and cannot therefore be the recipient of such measures," the chamber added.
It also warned that these measures "hide great threats to the global trade system", and expressed the hope that both sides would collaborate to reduce tensions and to resolve the central issue of overproduction and oversupply.
