Trade remedies under Vietnam-RoK discussion
VOV.VN - Vietnam and the Republic of Korea (RoK) discussed a range of measures aimed at reducing trade disputes, dealing with relevant emerging issues, and bolstering ties in anti-dumping investigations at the eighth conference on co-operation in trade remedies taking place on November 6 in Seoul.
At the event jointly held by the Korea Trade Commission under the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy, and the Trade Remedies Authority of Vietnam at the Ministry of Industry and Trade, both sides took time to examine ways in which to boost bilateral trade.
Since the Vietnam-RoK Free Trade Agreement (FTA) originally came into force in 2015 and the two countries signed a deal on expanding collaboration between their trade remedies agencies in 2018, they held discussions on each nation’s import regulations and established a co-operation channel for sharing views on trade defence matters.
With regard to the nation’s anti-dumping investigation into galvanized steel from the RoK which was initiated in June, the East Asian nation said the product’s direct impact on the Vietnamese steel industry is not significant, asking the country to thoroughly consider this issue.
