13:24Now PlayingEurope’s largest steel plant is in crisis. ThyssenKrupp plans to cut or outsource over 10,000 jobs. The causes: high energy costs in Germany and a fierce price war with China, which is dumping excess steel on global markets. And if U.S. tariffs block Chinese exports, even more could land in Europe.
