OREANDA-NEWS. May 17, 2010. Belarus expects Ukrainian companies to lift the 11.5% dumping margin on beer supplies; the next round of talks is scheduled for May, Chairman of Belarusian food concern Belgospischeprom Ivan Danchenko told reporters.

“We have proved that they are using an 11.5% margin; we have sent a document and expect them to come and lift the margin,” he said.

Under the circumstances, Belarus is entitled to impose a duty amounting to 11.5% or expect voluntary increases in retail prices.

Danchenko said he believed Ukrainian suppliers would raise selling prices.
