- Nippon Steel has proposed granting the U.S. government veto power over any potential production cuts at U.S. Steel to secure approval for its acquisition.
- This offer comes as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (CFIUS) has referred the decision to President Joe Biden.
- Biden has until January 7 to act on this decision, given his departure from office on January 20.
- If no action is taken by Biden, the merger would receive automatic approval.
- Nippon Steel's proposal includes a commitment to maintain production capacity at U.S. Steel's mills for the next 10 years unless reviewed by a Treasury-led panel.
