The new policy will reduce the quota for steel imports from non-Free Trade Agreement (FTA) partners to <strong>20%<\/strong>, a significant decrease from the previous <strong>50% of 2024 levels<\/strong>. Additionally, Canada will impose a global <strong>25% tariff<\/strong> on targeted imported steel-derivative products, affecting goods valued at approximately <strong>CAD10 billion<\/strong>. This aggressive stance aims to stabilize the Canadian steel market against global trade tensions and alleged dumping practices.<\/p>\n<p>In Eastern Europe, Ukraine&#39;s Prime Minister has confirmed a new agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), signaling <em>renewed confidence<\/em> in the nation&#39;s economic stability. The Prime Minister emphasized that this agreement underscores Ukraine\u2019s economic resilience and its capacity to manage financial risks effectively. The country&#39;s <strong>2026 budget<\/strong> is reportedly aligned with IMF requirements, and Kyiv remains committed to ongoing reforms and its anti-corruption drive, crucial for sustained international financial support.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in Washington D.C., the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director has confirmed the agency&#39;s involvement in an investigation following a shooting incident. Two members of the National Guard were critically wounded in the event, and the suspect also sustained severe injuries. Former President Trump addressed the incident on Truth Social, commending the National Guard, military, and law enforcement, and asserting that the suspect &quot;will pay a very steep price&quot;. The situation has prompted heightened security concerns in the nation&#39;s capital.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Takeaways Canada is significantly tightening steel import
