The EEC has allowed the supply of Uzbek polyethylene to the EAEU market

The Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission conducted an anti-dumping investigation into primary high-density polyethylene from the Republic of Uzbekistan. At the same time, taking into account the price commitments made by Uzbek manufacturers and the approved import volumes, the measure regarding the supply of products to the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, except for Russia, will not actually be applied.

Thus, the parameters of the presence of Uzbek polyethylene in the EAEU market have been agreed, taking into account the changed circumstances and the formation of the largest producer of this type of product in the Russian Federation, as well as the need for uninterrupted supply of processing enterprises from other states of the Union, where there is no production, with polyethylene at affordable prices.

"The Eurasian Economic Commission managed to maintain a balance of interests of producers and consumers, as well as to stabilize the situation taking into account the interests of Uzbek companies and the status of Uzbekistan as an observer country at the EAEU," commented the decision of the EEC Minister for Trade Andrey Slepnev.
