【SMM Steel】Bosnia's trade ministry proposed a 200-day, 30% duty on steel imports following a complaint by Nova Željezara Zenica. In 2025, reinforcing mesh imports surged 192.87% above the 4-year avg, with Serbian and Italian supply up 408.45% and 105.7%. Turkish coiled ribbed bar imports jumped 885.2%, Serbian 113.2%. The ministry warns of idle capacity and import dependency. The measure aims to prevent job losses and damage to local industry.
