Washington D.C., USA, March 14, 2018// — In 2015, The economist published “It’s a STEEL!” analyzing Chinese strategy of their over-production of steel.

Persuading China’s Iron and Steel Association to do their business in Africa neatly blends environmental concerns with the government’s geopolitical motives to push investment in Africa. But now it seems that US Steel Industry might have to fight for what they believe in; over a century of iconic production. The attached FT report published today, United States Steel The Renaissance of an American Icon, gives insight as to what the Chinese will have to face, in the immediate future.
