EC excludes Serbia from decision to impose duties on steel

BRUSSELS - The European Commission (EC) has excluded Serbia from a decision to impose anti-dumping measures and duties on imports of steel and steel products, which will make the Chinese-owned HBIS Group steel mill in Smederevo more competitive than other exporters.

The new anti-dumping measures concern steel product imports from Brazil, Iran, Russia and Ukraine to the EU, the EC announced on Friday.
