The National reported that UAE may appeal to the World Trade Organization to have recently imposed US charges on some grades of its steel exports removed. Abdulla Al Saleh, the undersecretary for Foreign Trade and Industry at the Ministry of Economy, said there is a mechanism to deal with these issues.
He told "We, as a government, are trying to solve it through consultation bilaterally with the US administration and we will try to solve it through consultation. If it doesn’t work, we haven’t decided yet, but we have another option to go through the WTO channel. It depends on the case and the evidence we have but we believe that we don’t practice any measures that [are] dumping or harming the US market."
Mr Al Saleh said that steel companies in the UAE did not receive any form of government subsidy. "There is no support from the government for the industry for practising any unfair trade in the international market."
On Friday, the United States International Trade Commission said that it would impose the charges after a US department of commerce investigation had determined that circular welded carbon-quality steel pipe had been sold below market price.
