The Russian government must prevent foreign companies' attempts to carry out dumping on the local industrial market, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said on Monday.
"We must not permit someone, a foreign producer to carry out dumping on our domestic market. Healthy competition is not just possible, it is necessary but dumping is unacceptable," Putin told a government meeting on road construction and operation.
He has also promised support for local makers of construction machinery.
"We'll render support to our machine-building companies, including when creating joint ventures and cooperating with leading foreign partners," Putin said.
