US Steel, Nippon partnership proceeds with security deal, 'golden share'
NEW YORK: The partnership between US Steel and Nippon Steel has reached a new phase, with an agreement on US national security guarantees, in addition to the so-called "golden share" advantage obtained by President Donald Trump's administration. On Friday evening, Trump signed an executive order approving the partnership, bringing an end to the long-running saga over foreign ownership of a key national asset which began in December 2023, when US Steel and Nippon Steel announced plans for a US$14.9 billion merger. Nippon's acquisition of US Steel was held up by former president Joe Biden, who blocked it in his last weeks in the White House on national security grounds. Trump initially opposed Nippon Steel's takeover plan, calling for US Steel to remain domestically owned, but he threw his support behind a "partnership" in May. "US Steel will REMAIN in America, and keep its Headquarters in the Great City of Pittsburgh," the US president said in a Truth Social post. In a joint statement, US Steel and Nippon Steel said Trump "has approved the Companies' historic partnership that will unleash unprecedented investments in steelmaking in the United States, protecting and creating more than 100,000 jobs." "In addition to President Trump's Executive Order approving the partnership, the Companies have entered into a National Security Agreement (NSA) with the US Government," they said, which calls for approximately US$11 billion in new investments to be made by 2028. Trump's executive order did not provide details about the NSA, but he reserved the authority to issue further orders "as shall in my judgment be necessary to protect the national security of the United States." Friday's announcement follows a review of the deal by the government's Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), which is tasked with analyzing the national security implications of foreign takeovers of US companies. On Saturday, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick insisted on the need for the "perpetual Golden Share," which gives the US government the right to block any action it so chooses. Lutnick did not elaborate on the precise value of the share, saying only that it had "powerful terms that directly benefit and protect America, Pennsylvania, the great steelworkers of US Steel, and US manufacturers." He gave a list of examples of actions that the US government would have to approve, including any relocation of US Steel headquarters, moving the company outside the United States, changing its name or moving jobs outside the country.

Namibia records sharp rise in food prices despite easing overall inflation
WINDHOEK, June 12 (Xinhua) -- Namibia's food prices continued to rise sharply in May even as the country's overall inflation rate eased, according to the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) bulletin released Thursday by the Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA). The report said Namibia's annual headline inflation rate stood at 3.5 percent in May, down from 4.9 percent recorded in the same month last year. However, the cost of food and non-alcoholic beverages increased by 5.8 percent year on year, making it one of the main contributors to the overall inflation figure. The price of fruits rose by 15.5 percent, with notable increases in the prices of watermelons, citrus fruits, and avocados, the report stated, adding that meat prices went up by 8.8 percent, driven by higher costs for beef, lamb, minced meat, and biltong. Oils and fats saw a 9.1 percent increase, largely due to rising prices of cooking oil and cooking fats, it added. Other food items that registered notable increases include fish, which rose by 9.1 percent, and vegetables, which increased by 7.7 percent compared to the same period last year. Meanwhile, the report noted that transport costs declined by 1.3 percent year on year in May 2025, largely due to falling fuel prices. The price of petrol and diesel fell by 7.8 percent compared to the previous year, providing some relief to overall inflationary pressures. According to the NSA, food, housing, transport, and alcoholic beverages remain the largest components of Namibia's inflation basket, collectively accounting for over 70 percent of household expenditure.
