V zvezi z izboljšanjem položaja industrije Skupnosti med 1997 in OP, zlasti v zvezi s produktivnostjo in izkoriščenostjo zmogljivosti, je nanj treba gledati z vidika protidampinških ukrepov, uvedenih leta 1997 proti uvozu brezšivnih cevi iz Češke republike, Madžarske, Poljske, Romunije, Rusije in Slovaške republike z Uredbo (ES) št. 2320/97 [3]. V bistvu je bil namen teh protidampinških ukrepov odpraviti škodo, za katero je bilo ugotovljeno, da jo trpi industrija Skupnosti.
As regards the improvement in the situation of the Community industry between 1997 and the IP, especially concerning productivity and capacity utilisation, this should be seen in the light of the anti-dumping measures imposed in 1997 against imports of seamless tubes from the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia and the Slovak Republic by Regulation (EC) No 2320/97(3) Indeed, the intended effect of those anti-dumping measures was to remove the injury found to be suffered by the Community industry.
