Australia's South32 views US aluminium tariffs as negotiating tactic, CEO says

MELBOURNE, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Australian miner South32's S32.AX CEO Graham Kerr said on Thursday he viewed U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs on aluminium as a negotiating tactic rather than a long-term policy of his administration.

"The challenge with all the tariffs is how long does it last for ... I don't think anyone knows," Kerr said on an earnings conference call.
