U.S. to Impose 200% Tariff on Russian Aluminum

2023-04-07

Alumium is often used in fuselage, bolts and window & door frames. In a thorough effort to combat Russian circumvention of sancitions, U.S. White House announced a 200% tariff on Russian aluminum and related aluminum products, which has been effective since March 10.
