Summary: Report published by the European Commission in June 2016 accounting for the trends in trade defence activities by third countries for the year 2015. Further information: Trade defence is ensured by three trade defence instruments (TDIs): anti-dumping (AD), anti-subsidy (AS) and safeguard (SFG) measures. The application of TDI is regulated under the World Trade Organization (WTO) relevant agreements and jurisprudence. Over the years there has been an increase in the use of trade defence measures against the European Union (EU) and individual Member States. The EU itself is a regular user of these instruments and its system is based on an approach whose standards are laid down in the EU legislation that go even beyond the WTO commitments. The present report describes the overall trends in trade defence activities by third countries, which adversely impact or could potentially impact EU exports. It also gives an overview of what third country monitoring means concretely with detailed analyses per country and detailed figures in annex. This is the thirteenth report of this kind published by the Commission. |
