(WASHINGTON) — President Donald Trump’s administration is planning to impose tariffs on European steel and aluminum imports after failing to win concessions from the European Union, a move that could provoke retaliatory tariffs and inflame trans-Atlantic trade tensions.

The tariffs are likely to go into effect on the E.U. with an announcement by Friday’s deadline, according to two people familiar with the discussions.
