India’s steel measures of concern to China

CHINA is highly concerned with Indian trade remedy measures against Chinese steel products, the Ministry of Commerce said yesterday.

The Indian government has launched an anti-dumping investigation into color-coated steel sheets imported from China. It is the fifth such probe against China by India this year, the highest record among World Trade Organization members, according to a statement on the ministry’s website.

Countries have realized that the global steel industry is experiencing difficulties due to sluggish economic growth and weak demand, but abuse of trade remedy measures would not help resolve industrial overcapacity but hamper normal trade, the statement said.

China and India have broad room for cooperation in the industry, the ministry said, adding that it is hoped that the two countries can seek common development through trade, investment and technological cooperation and properly handle trade frictions.

The ministry said it hoped the Indian government could conduct a fair and transparent investigation in line with WTO rules, and refrain from trade remedy measures.
