< p > because local manufacturers are trying to protect the "a href=" //m.pmae.cn/ "domestic market < /a" under the background of increasing imports, Russia's imports of chemical fibers and textiles may be significantly reduced over the next few years. Recently, some Russian leading chemical fiber producers and members of the Federation of Russian textile and light industry enterprises presented two petitions to Russian Prime Minister Medvedev, requesting the import tariff of Russian chemical fiber and textiles increased from the current 10% to 20%. < /p >
< p > according to the manufacturer, it is necessary to carry out anti-dumping investigations on chemical fibers and < a href= "http://m.pmae.cn/news/index_c.asp" > textiles > /a > which are imported into other countries of Russia and Kazakhstan and Belarus customs union. The European Economic Commission (EEC), as a permanent regulatory body, is also involved. In its official letter, the manufacturer said that Russia's accession to the WTO led to a significant increase in the import of textiles and related fibers and yarns to Russia, causing serious losses to local manufacturers. < /p >
At the same time, the anti dumping investigation requested by manufacturers has also attracted criticism from some local clothing and nonwoven producers and related institutions. They believe that artificially restricting imports may have a negative impact on the development of related industries. P For example, the official representative of the Russian nonwovens Manufacturers Association (RANWP) believes that the potential restrictions on imports will lead to significant improvements in domestic production, but at this stage, Russian manufacturers do not yet have the necessary capacity to implement mass production, and the technical conditions of most of the enterprises in the industry are still very poor. < /p >
In addition, the Russian nonwovens market is far from saturated, and the increase in tariffs will lead to a decline in the supply of the domestic market. < p > < /p >
The official representative of P EEC said: "in previous investigations, manufacturers required protective measures against various types of synthetic fibers, some of which were not produced by customs union members. In this regard, it would be unfair to take protective measures under such circumstances, and also seriously violated some of the WTO a href= "http://m.pmae.cn/news/index_p.asp" rules and regulations < /a >. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the list of chemical fibers and textiles that have increased rapidly. If it does threaten clothing and nonwoven production in Russia and other customs unions, EEC will investigate the matter after the list is completed. < /p >
