The Obama Administration appears to be taking a harder line against the dumping of steel imports after a multitude of preliminary determinations by the Department of Commerce recommended touch tariff rates on several U.S. trading partners, prominent among them China in the above-mentioned case A-570-029 regarding cold-rolled steel flat products. Specifically, Chinese producers were slapped with a preliminary dumping margin of 265.79%, resulting from the fact that not a single company responded to requests for information, according to a DOC report. Chinese importers were by no means the only ones affected by this recent trend. Importers from the following countries will also find themselves subject to new tariff rates: Japan (71.35), Brazil (38.93 percent), the U.K. (28.03 percent), Russia (14.76 percent), India (6.78 percent) and South Korea (4.53 percent). Some perceive these actions as a response by President Obama to criticism that his administration has been too lenient in addressing matters of unfair trade practices, notably by GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump as well as other party leaders. Chinese producers in November were estimated to be responsible for between 48 percent and 60 percent of the world's oversupply of steel, according to U.S. News and World Report.
在美国商务部对来自包括中国在内的多个国家的冷轧钢板作出肯定性初裁之后,奥巴马政府似乎是对钢铁产品的倾销采取更加强硬的手段。根据美国商务部的初裁报告,由于没有一个单独的中国企业应诉,中国生产商的反倾销初裁税率被裁定为265.79%。中国并非是唯一一个受此影响的国家。进口自以下国家的产品将被征收额外的反倾销税:日本(71.35%)、巴西(38.93%)、英国(28.03%)、俄罗斯(14.76%)、印度(6.78%)和韩国(4.53%)。一些人认为,这个行动是奥巴马总统对于共和党总统领导者Donald Trump和其他党派领导所作出的关于奥巴马政府对不公平的贸易实践太仁慈的批评的回应。根据美国新闻与世界报道,中国生产商的钢铁产品供应量在去年11月被评估为超过世界钢铁需求量的48%-60%。
