Trump and Nippon Steel Reach National-Security Agreement on U.S. Steel Deal

  • On June 6, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order approving Nippon Steel's $14.9 billion merger with U.S. Steel after a national security agreement was finalized.
  • The deal follows President Biden's January block citing national security, which led to a review and a new agreement addressing security and governance concerns.
  • The agreement includes a $11 billion investment commitment by 2028, U.S. government veto power via a golden share, and production mandates to maintain blast furnace operations.
  • Trump told workers there will be no layoffs or outsourcing and called Nippon Steel a "great partner" that will invest substantially in American steelmaking jobs.
  • This partnership secures U.S. influence in the steel industry, projects 70,000 new jobs, and aims to revive manufacturing with a $14 billion injection into the economy.
