US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he was considering options to address steel and aluminium imports that he said were unfairly hurting US producers, including tariffs and quotas.

Trump's comments - his strongest signal in months that he will take action to restrict imports of the two metals - came in a meeting with a bipartisan group of US senators and representatives at the White House.
