China will initiate anti-dumping measures, the Ministry of Commerce said Friday, against imported ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) goods from the #UnitedStates (USA), the Republic of #Korea (ROK) and the #EuropeanUnion (EU).
Starting Sunday, duties will be collected for a five-year period at rates ranging from 12.5 percent to 222 percent, the ministry added. The EPDM is commonly used to make auto components, wires, cables and other industrial goods as feedstock.
Chinas justification: " China's domestic industry has suffered substantial damage due to the dumping of such products by the United States, the ROK and the EU, the ministry said in a final ruling based on an anti-dumping investigation launched in June last year."
Iraq's currency devaluation news spread rapidly last week when a copy of the budget draft for next year was leaked to the local media. The news sent the unofficial rate skyrocketing at exchange houses,
upsetting local businesses and panicking Iraqis. The unofficial exchange rate before the news varied from 1,200 to 1,240 dinars against the dollar. That rate reached as much as 1,400 soon.
Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al Kadhimi said that because of the inevitable public reaction, he will be the 'first hurt' by the devaluation and austerity measures in the 2021 budget.
The international nuclear deal with the regime in Iran has long been considered a great diplomatic success for some countries. The pact was supposed to prevent the Regine in Iran from building an atomic bomb.
Five years after its creation, however, SPD Foreign Minister Heiko Maas now sees him at a "crossroad". "In view of the basically positive signals from Washington, it is now up to Iran to keep the arms control agreement alive." So he said.
"The opportunity that now presents itself, this last time window must not be wasted," Maas appealed to Tehran after a ministerial meeting of the top diplomats from Germany, Great Britain, France, Russia, China and Iran. Since the US left the agreement in May 2018,
A government source said that Al-Hashd Al-Shaabi, led by Abdulaziz Al-Muhammadawi, had created a committee to investigate the missile attacks that attacked the Green Zone.
Al-Hashd is investigating the missile attacks for the first time, although some of its factions, especially those close to Iran, have been repeatedly accused of being behind the assaults.
The source said that the committee's establishment came after allegations were made against Al-Hashd for being behind the attacks and facilitating the transport of official vehicle missiles.

The Kilauea in Hawaii is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and a popular tourist destination. But people should stay away from the volcano because it haunts ash and lava.
The eruption began yesterday evening inside the volcanic basin on the Big Island, said the US earthquake monitoring station USGS. Clouds of red steam rose into the night sky, as seen in images of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
The USGS warned that a lot of volcanic ash could enter the atmosphere. Aircraft are said to fly around the area around Kilauea. The US weather service warned that the wind could carry the ashes to villages in the southwest of the island.
