WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Commerce Department said on Monday it has opened national security investigations into the import of drones and related components as well as polysilicon, a key component in solar panels and semiconductors.
The “Section 232” investigations, which were opened on July 1 but not publicly disclosed previously, could be used as a basis of even higher tariffs on imported drones and polysilicon and its derivatives.
