On July 21, 2011, the Committee of Customs Union of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan has passed a decision to impose protective tariffs on some import goods, which are released on its official website. Details as follows:

2. Levying 4.8%-62.8% anti-dumping duties respectively on nickel-contained stainless-steel cold-rolled sheets (plates or coiled materials) originating in Brazil, China, South Korea, and South Africa, till December 25, 2013;

3. Levying anti-dumping duty of 19.4% on China-made bearing tubes till June 16, 2013.

4. Levying antidumping duty of 18.9% on Ukraine's casing pipes, 19.9% on its pump pipings, and 19.4%-37% on petroleum or gas tubes/pipes (diameter less than 820 mm) till November 18, 2015;

5. Levying protective tariffs of USD 282.4 per ton on some fasteners (bolts, nuts and washers) originating in China till March 17, 2014;

6. Levying protective tariffs of USD 1.4 per kg on China's stainless-steel dinnerware till December 26, 2012;

7. Levying 31.3%-41.5% import tariffs on bearings from China till January 20, 2013;

8. Levying protective tariffs of 9.9% but not less than USD 1,500 per ton on stainless-steel tubes (external diameter below 426 mm) from Brazil and China, till November 1, 2012;

9. Levying anti-dumping duty of 11.6% on some synthetic nylon yarn from Ukraine till September 24, 2013.

The protective measures has taken by Customs Union (CU) against Ukrainian metals importers indicated Russia is keen to torpedo the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA) with the European Union.

As a result of the CU action, Ukrainian producers will face limitations in Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia's markets while Russian industrialists run riot. The Ukrainian factories may be forced to look to African and Asian markets instead.

The observers remarked that it looks like Russia has begun an operation designed to bring Ukraine back into its fold. Ukraine will not turn away from its European choice because it has profound and long term implications for the future of the country. It will not turn away entirely from Russia because it cannot risk political and economic isolation from its giant neighbour. A win-win solution must be found for all sides.

In April 2007 Russian officials imposed a five-year antidumping duty of 21.8% on mechanical fasteners produced in Ukraine.
