Joe Biden To Decide On Nippon Steel's $14.9B US Steel Acquisition On Friday Amid Veto Offer, Labor Concerns
While key CFIUS members including the Justice, Treasury, and State Departments support the deal, U.S. Trade Representative President Joe Biden is expected to announce his decision on Nippon Steel's (OTC:NPSCY) $14.9 billion acquisition of United States Steel Corp. (NYSE:X) as soon as Friday, despite previously expressing opposition to foreign ownership of the iconic American steelmaker.
预计乔·拜登总统将在星期五尽快宣布他对日本钢铁公司（场外交易：NPSCY）以149亿美元收购美国钢铁公司（纽交所：X）的决定，尽管他曾表示反对外资控股这家标志性的美国钢铁制造商。
In a last-minute effort to secure approval, Nippon Steel proposed giving the U.S. government direct veto power over production changes at U.S. Steel's facilities, reported CBS News on Thursday, citing sources.
为了确保最后一刻获得批准，日本钢铁提议赋予美国政府对美国钢铁公司设施生产变更的直接否决权，哥伦比亚广播公司新闻周四引用消息来源报道。
The Japanese steelmaker also offered a 10-year guarantee maintaining production levels at mills across six states, subject to Committee on Foreign Investment approval.
这家日本钢铁制造商还提供了一项为期10年的保证，维持六个州工厂的生产水平，需经外资投资委员会批准。
While key CFIUS members including the Justice, Treasury, and State Departments support the deal, U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai has raised labor-related concerns. Sources according to the report indicate U.S. Steel may pursue legal action if Biden blocks the acquisition, potentially targeting the administration and rival Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:CLF).
尽管包括司法部、财政部和国务院在内的外资投资委员会关键成员支持该交易，美国贸易代表凯瑟琳·泰表示对劳工问题表示担忧。根据报告的消息来源，美国钢铁公司如果拜登阻止收购，可能会采取法律行动，目标可能是政府和对手克利夫兰克里夫公司（纽交所：CLF）。
