Instead, they suggest forming a united front against competition from China.\n\nThe US has imposed tariffs on aluminum due to overcapacity concerns. China's Commerce Ministry has responded, saying it will monitor the situation and reserves the right to take necessary measures.\n\nUS and Canadian aluminum producers' groups are urging their governments to stop targeting each other with tariffs. They want to focus on addressing competition from China.",
