The world trade organization (WTO) has obliged Ukraine to implement the decision in a dispute about the adjustments made in favor of Russia, said the press service of the Ministry of economic development.
As you can see from the message, Kiev gave a period of up to fifteen September.
in July 2014 Ukraine more than tripled import duties on ammonium nitrate from Russia (with eleven, 91 to 36, 03 per cent). In Kiev the decision was explained by the fact that the cost of gas for Ukrainian nitrogen plants chemistry and Russian producers is significantly different.
in response, Russia in may 2015, filed a lawsuit in the WTO. The main claim was the fact that Kiev has used unfair methods "energy adjustments" to calculate the value of Russian products and instead of the energy prices on the Russian market used prices on the markets of third countries.
in the end, the panel found that Ukraine's measures violate WTO rules. The appellate body agreed with this and finally secured the victory of Russia.
As emphasized in the Ministry of economic development, the WTO has obliged Ukraine to eliminate violations in respect of the calculation of the dumping margin, and the deletion of OJSC "EuroChem" from the application of anti-dumping measures.
At the same time, added the Ministry, Ukraine had to either immediately remedy the violation or to come to a consensus with Russia on the so-called " reasonable period of time."
"so As to reach such an agreement with Ukraine failed, Russia was forced to seek arbitration of the WTO ", - said the Ministry.
