Kazakhstan’s "ArcelorMittal Temirtau" company is suspending the supply of hot rolled products from Iran, Kazakh media reported July 17 referring to the press service of the company.
The decision has been made in connection with the introduction of U.S. sanctions against Iran, the company explained.
"This is a temporary suspension of hot-rolled products supplies, that is, deliveries will not be carried out until the sanctions are lifted," the company noted.
