In 2024, Turkey's imports of pig iron from Ukraine decreased by 6.3% year-on-year. This decline is attributed to the ongoing challenges in the global iron and steel market, exacerbated by the Russian-Ukrainian war. The conflict has disrupted supply chains and increased logistical difficulties, impacting the ability of Ukrainian producers to export pig iron. Despite these challenges, Ukraine remains a significant supplier of pig iron to Turkey, although the volume of imports has been affected by the broader geopolitical and economic situation.
