in spite of the anti-dumping duty in force,

imports of subject goods from the United

injurious effect on the domestic industry continued from the People’s Republic
of China, the dumping from European Union is likely to recur in the event of
revocation of the duties;

there is a likelihood of continuation or
recurrence of dumping of the subject goods, originating in or exported from the
subject countries except the United States of America, and consequent injury to
the domestic industry, in the event of revocation of the anti-dumping duties,
