原标题：Trump Awaits CFIUS Ruling on Nippon Steel's $14.9B U.S. Steel Takeover Bid

A critical U.S. national security panel has submitted its recommendation to President Donald Trump regarding Nippon Steel’s contested $14.9 billion acquisition of U.S. Steel, according to a source familiar with the matter. While the content of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (CFIUS) recommendation remains undisclosed, it follows an executive order signed by Trump last month directing CFIUS to assess whether proposed corporate measures address previously identified national security concerns.

Trump now has 15 days to review the recommendation and decide whether to allow the deal to proceed. However, the timeline may be extended. The Treasury Department, which leads CFIUS, along with Nippon Steel and U.S. Steel, have not commented on the latest development.

The deal, originally blocked in January by then-President Joe Biden due to national security risks, has sparked legal action from the companies involved, who argue the review process was unfair. The Biden administration denied the allegation.

In response to U.S. government concerns, Nippon Steel has reportedly pledged to invest up to $14 billion in U.S. Steel operations, including a proposed $4 billion investment in a new steel mill, if the merger is approved. This commitment aims to ease regulatory concerns and demonstrate the company's intent to support American manufacturing.

Under the April directive, CFIUS was also required to include a detailed statement outlining the position of each participating agency and the rationale behind their stance.

The outcome of Trump’s decision could significantly impact the future of U.S. steel production, foreign investment policy, and broader U.S.-Japan economic relations. The final ruling is now under close watch by both the steel industry and international trade observers.

据一位知情人士透露，一个重要的美国国家安全小组已就新日铁以 149 亿美元收购美国钢铁公司一事向唐纳德·特朗普总统提交了建议。虽然美国外国投资委员会 （CFIUS） 的建议内容仍未披露，但它是在特朗普上个月签署一项行政命令之后发布的，该命令指示 CFIUS 评估拟议的公司措施是否解决了先前确定的国家安全问题。

特朗普现在有 15 天的时间来审查该建议并决定是否允许该协议继续进行。但是，时间表可能会延长。领导 CFIUS 的财政部以及新日铁和美国钢铁公司尚未对最新进展发表评论。

该交易最初于 1 月因国家安全风险而被时任总统乔·拜登阻止，并引发了相关公司的法律行动，他们认为审查过程不公平。拜登政府否认了这一指控。

据报道，为了回应美国政府的担忧，新日铁已承诺向美国钢铁公司投资高达 140 亿美元，包括如果合并获得批准，将向一家新钢厂投资 40 亿美元。这一承诺旨在缓解监管担忧，并表明公司支持美国制造业的意图。

根据 4 月的指令，CFIUS 还被要求包括一份详细的声明，概述每个参与机构的立场及其立场背后的理由。

特朗普决定的结果可能会对美国钢铁生产的未来、外国投资政策以及更广泛的美日经济关系产生重大影响。最终裁决现在受到钢铁行业和国际贸易观察员的密切关注。
