Any U.S. tariffs could spark trade war, cut growth, Germany says
 

Trumps comments were the strongest signal in months that he will take
at least some action to restrict imports of the two metals, delivering
on his election pledge to put America first and protect U.S. workers

Industry and Commerce, said the introduction of tariffs would eventually
burden U.S. consumers through higher prices and could trigger a
worldwide trade war.
