Ukraine's Anti-monopoly Committee (AMCU) has initiated a special investigation into the recent
iron ore price rise in the domestic market based on a filed complaint received from
Ilyich Iron and Steel Works of Mariupol (
Ilyich).
According to
Ilyich, the recent price rise, produced by the Ukrainian
iron ore enterprises, was unreasonable. However, the company has added that it had filed the complaint in order to investigate the current price situation in the Ukrainian
iron ore market, not against any particular
iron ore supplier.
