Blaming che<\/strong>ap imports for the struggles of the European steel industry \u201coversimplifies <\/strong>the problem<\/strong> and risks unfairly penalising responsible, compliant producers such as Ezz Steel,\u201d Ezz Steel Chairman Ahmed Ezz wrote in a letter to the Financial Times<\/a> published late last week.
