The UK did just recently do that for a Chinese-owned steel mill.

There are ~500 steel mills in Europe. 6 in the UK alone.
That doesnt make the action any less meaningful, and perhaps suggest it was done with caution, prudence and forethought.
I should have made my point more clear:

There's an established base of steel mills in Europe. Take one over, and your local talent pool can probably keep it running. There's less risk.
