NEW LIST OF SANCTIONED PERSONS IN RUSSIA TRADE DEFENSE IN THE UNITED STATES

Italian and European companies that export to non-EU countries have to deal daily with the protectionist trade defense measures implemented by other countries and with the limitations imposed by the EU on traffic to Russia, following the invasion of Ukraine.

Knowing the measures taken in a timely manner is not always simple; with our newsletters we try to keep our partners updated on the measures gradually adopted.

In this appointment we talk about the update of the list of sanctioned subjects in Russia, renewed twice in the space of a week and the review of anti-dumping duties in the United States relating to cold drawn mechanical tubes (HS 730431, 730451, 730630 ,730650).
