represented the interests of Group DF in

Sayenko Kharenko’s

international trade team has represented the interests of the DF Group

companies including JSC “Azot”, PJSC “Severodonetsk Azot Association”, PJSC “Rovnoazot”

and PJSC “Concern Stirol” (Group DF) in an interim review of anti-dumping measures applied

to imports into Ukraine of nitrate ammonium originating in the Russian

Federation.

Sayenko Kharenko’s

scope of work included: drafting application on initiation of review; drafting

comments on different issues (concerning the answers of Russian producers to

questionnaires, materials of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of

Ukraine on the results of the review, etc.); preparing answers to

questionnaires and additional questionnaires; participation in hearings and drafting

post-hearings submissions, etc.

Following an

anti-dumping investigation, the description of the goods subject to

anti-dumping measures was refined in order to prevent further circumvention of

the existing anti-dumping measures on nitrate ammonium by supplying new

modifications of nitrate ammonium with a total mass fraction of nitrate and

ammonium nitrogen in terms of nitrogen in dry matter of 28 per cent and

above.

Additionally, the

size of the current anti-dumping measures increased based on the results of the

interim review, namely for:

  • PJSC
  • “Dorogobuzh” up to 29.25 per cent;

  • other
  • exporters and the Russian Federation in general up to 42.96 per cent.

    Following a preliminary interim review, the following anti-dumping

    measures were applied to:

  • exporter
  • PJSC  “Dorogobuzh” – 20.51 per cent;

  • exporter
  • JSC “MCC EuroChem” – 36.03 per cent;

  • other
  • exporters and the Russian Federation in general – 36.03 per cent.

    included associates Ivan Baranenko and Victoriia Mykuliak and was led by

    partner Anzhela Makhinova.
